This depends on whether this bill is water usage charge only or if it’s water usage + water fixed costs + sewage costs.
$200 for all three in two months is roughly my water usage+fixed costs + sewage costs.
My august bill consisted of the past two months included
$39 water base fee (pipe size 3/4″)
$79 water usage fee
$33 sewer base fee
$81 sewer usage fee
$2 storm drain fee
$13 credit
So roughly $221/every two months
My water usage was 21 HCF. The water company feels i should only be using 14 HCF, so charged me 7 HCF at a higher rate. So I was charged $51 for the first 14 HCF and $27 for the last 7 HCF.
1 HCF = 748 gallons.
My observation was that conserving water usage really doesn’t reduce your bill in a meaningful way. Don’t get me wrong, conserving water is a good thing in itself. It’s just isn’t not really saving that much money. The majority of my bill is in the other charges.
