Wastewater and sewer calculation
Wastewater is billed separately from potable-water consumption under Toho’s applicable sewer rate schedule and is generally tied to the metered water volume delivered to the account, subject to the authority’s residential/commercial classifications and any approved caps or averaging rules. The total bill can also include monthly base charges, reclaimed-water charges, stormwater or cross-connection components, and other service-specific fees. Toho does not publish one universal winter-average formula for every service area in the public customer book, so the account’s current tariff controls.
Meter and infrastructure notes
Toho uses remotely read utility meters and customer-facing usage tools in parts of its service territory, with meter data supporting billing and high-usage review.
