Those commercial sewer users, excluding independent discharge users, who dispose of a portion of their water by other than the City’s sanitary sewer system shall be billed by computing the average monthly use during the four months of November, December, January and February, and said average shall be the monthly charge for the eight months next following.

For relief of those residents who are experiencing a financial hardship, application may be made to the city recorder for a reduced monthly charge calculated at 50% of the minimum charge as established above. 

Commercial independent discharge users must operate and maintain independent wastewater disposal facilities which are currently licensed by the State of Oregon for the disposal of wastewater. During all times when approved and licensed wastewater facilities are operable, the rate for discharge to the public treatment works will be based on the actual metered flow of discharge, or will be based on the calculated discharge of each employee per shift per day as follows:

Industry discharging on domestic wastewater

Billing to be figured on 15 gallons per employee/per shift/per day or based on metered discharge

The metered users of the class will provide access to city personnel to read the meter in each billing period.  They will also provide an annual calibration and certification of the metering device from an individual certified for such verification.
