Example:	"Cheerful Day-Care Center" usage (previous year) = 345,000 gpy
	Minimum for first 60,000 gpy = 1 EDU
	345,000 gpy - 60,000 gpy = 285,000 gpy
	285,000 gpy/60,000 gpy = 4.75 = 5 EDUs

C. Commercial/institutional (Class B, greater than 480,000 gpy):

(1) Minimum one EDU per service and an additional one EDU for every 60,000 gpy usage above the first 60,000 gpy up to 480,000 gpy and then an additional one EDU for every 120,000 gpy above 480,000 gpy, rounded to the nearest whole EDU.

	Minimum for first 60,000 gpy = 1 EDU
	480,000 gpy - 60,000 gpy = 420,000 gpy/60,000 gpy = 7 EDUs
	1,025,000 gpy - 480,000 gpy = 545,000 gpy/120,000 gpy = 4.54 = 5 EDUs
	Total EDUs for "Community School Facility" example = 1 + 7 + 5 = 13 EDUs

D. Industrial user (Class C, fewer than 6,000,000 gpy):

Example:	"Y Food Processing Corp." usage (previous year) = 13,420,000 gpy
	6,000,000 gpy/60,000 gpy = 100 EDUs
	13,420,000 gpy - 6,000,000 gpy = 7,420,000 gpy/120,000 gpy = 61.8 = 62 EDUs
	Total EDUs for "Y Food Processing Corp." example = 100 + 62 = 162 EDUs
