Surcharge - A
surcharge of ten (10) percent shall be added to the above rates for steam
service supplied upon customer's request for service at gauge pressure above 15
psi but not exceeding 100 psi.
Fuel Cost Adjustment
- This rate is subject to a Fuel Cost Adjustment factor added to the above
charges and calculated as defined on a separate rate schedule incorporated
herein by this reference.
Amine Treatment Adjustment
- The amine treatment adjustment allows for the monthly adjustment of rates to
reflect the actual cost incurred due to amine feed. The factor shall be applied
to each 1000 pounds (lbs) billed. The factor shall consist of 1.124 times the
weighted average amine cost per 1000 lbs treated during the previous month.
Tax Adjustment - Bills
shall be increased within the limits of any governmental authority or political
subdivision which levies taxes, license fees, franchise fees, or any other
charges against the BWL's property, or its operation, or the production and/or
sale of steam, to offset any such cost and thereby prevent other customers from
being compelled to share such local increases.
Minimum Charge - The
Basic Service Charge included in the rate except that Special Minimum Charges
shall be billed when the revenue received does not adequately compensate the BWL
for the cost of furnishing service.
Delayed Payment Charge
- A delayed payment charge of 5% of the unpaid balance, excluding delayed
payment charges, shall be added to any bill which is not paid on or before the
due date.
Reconnect Charge - A
reconnect charge shall be added to any account which discontinues and reconnects
service at the same address within a twelve (12) month period. The reconnect
charge is specified in the BWL Rules and Regulations for Steam Service.
Rules and Regulations
- Service under this rate is subject to the BWL Rules and Regulations for Steam
Service which are incorporated herein by this reference.
