*Pounds of BOD5 subject
to a surcharge are calculated by the following equation: (C2 - 300) x 0.00624 x Q = SS, subject to surcharge where
C2 is the concentration of suspended solids
in milligrams per liter of the wastewater and Q is the actual metered
water use or wastewater discharge measured in units of 100 cubic feet.
The rates assessed for surcharges may be adjusted from time to time
to reflect the current rates paid by the Town for the treatment of
each pound of BOD5 and each pound of suspended
solids at the Bondi Island Treatment Plan plus a ten-percent surcharge
to cover the Town's administrative costs.
