rates.
Sewer usage charges are truly
an environmental bargain.
Think of it this way: how
much is it worth to you to make just one gallon of the shower,
toilet, or kitchen sink wastewater that you generated today clean
enough to put back in our local waterways... the places we swim
in, fish from, and get our drinking water from?
Five
dollars?
One dollar?
A quarter?
How about
less than half a penny!
Yes, at our current sewer rates, WPC
cleanses Huntsville's wastewater for less than half of one
cent per gallon.
How do Huntsville's sewer rates compare to those
paid in other cities across Alabama and the U.S.?
