Sewer Rate Settlement
Wastewater Rate Change

On October 8, 2007, the San Diego City Council approved a class action lawsuit settlement affecting sewer rates for the City of San Diego. The lawsuit alleged that the City had overcharged Single Family Residential customers for sewer services while undercharging other customers until rates were revised in October 2004. The settlement requires the City to reimburse Single Family Residential customers approximately $40 million over the next four years.
