Fees and Rates

NOTICE

TO BOONE COUNTY WATER CUSTOMERS

 

Effective December 31, 2018, water rates for Boone County Water District customers will increase by Thirteen cents ($.13) per 1,000 gallons. The water rates for the monthly minimum bill of 3,000 gallons will now be $ 17.91 and is a 2.2% increase in your water rate. The reason for this change is that our supplier has been required to increase its rates due to increased costs and increasing governmental requirements to assure water quality. Our supplier increased our rates January 1, 2018; Boone County Water District decided to absorb the rate increase until the end of December in attempt to lessen the impact to our customers. The new rate will be reflected in the water bill for January, which will be received on or about January 31, 2019.

Water is not only a valuable resource, but is also a great value for customers of Boone County Water District. Your water is withdrawn from the Ohio River; treated by state of the art treatment facilities at Greater Cincinnati Water Works’ Miller Treatment Plant; piped to a point of delivery facility in Constance in Boone County, and then distributed to customers of Boone County Water District. The unit cost to Boone County Water District customers is approximately one half cent per gallon.

Although water from Boone County Water District is inexpensive, it is a valuable resource. Please do not waste it.
