§ 34-133. Bench meter test fee.

A customer requesting that the system apply a bench test at the system's meter shop to the meter serving the customer's account shall be assessed one of the following charges only if the system finds that the meter being tested is accurate:

⅝" bench meter test fee: $127.58

¾" bench meter test fee: $147.13

1" bench meter test fee: $174.91

1½" bench meter test fee: $318.95

2" bench meter test fee: $467.10

The fee amounts are effective January 1, 2019. The fee amounts shall be adjusted on January 1 of each year thereafter by the percentage difference (greater than zero (0)) between the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) as it is calculated by the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics at the end of the month of July prior to the next year and as it was calculated at the end of the month of July one year earlier. SAWS will periodically perform a cost of service analysis to ensure that the fees charged do not exceed the cost of providing the services.
