For the past three decades, the Advisory Board has been tracking the retail rates for the 60 MWRA communities and many out-of-system communities as well. Every year, the survey gives the communities and the ratepayers a chance to compare their own rates to those of their neighbors. They can also see the long-term trends of their rate history. The input from all of the communities makes the survey rich in information and continually the most requested Advisory Board publication.<\/p>\n
For the 2020 calendar year, using the AWWA standard of 120 HCF per household usage annually, the average combined water and sewer bill for MWRA communities was $1,700. This is an increase of 2.26% from last year\u2019s combined bill of $1,662. In comparison, the average wholesale rate change for wholesale communities in June of 2019 was 3.02%. When factoring in local, state, and federal data, the average household usage in the MWRA service area is estimated to be 64.6 HCF a year with an average combined bill of $862.<\/p>\n
