Water

The supply of water is the responsibility of the Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) and the following charges currently apply for industrial use:

Connection Fee                  M100.00

Rate per kilolitre                 M3.12

Kilolitres of water               M3.24

Returned to sewers:

WASA assumes that water returned to sewers is 85% of kilolitres billed.  However, wet industries receive special treatment through the concessionary Waste water Tariffs for Wet Industries Notice 2000 which applies the following costs:

    Untreated effluent:  M1.07 per kilolitre

    Treated effluent:     M0.50 per kilolitre for the first year of operation
                    and       M0.63 per kilolitre for  subsequent years

    Standing charge for all customers  =  M2.81

    Domestic Customers – Water

            BAND

            A.        0 – 5 kilolitres                    M1.86 per 1000 litres

            B.         6 – 10 kilolitres                 M3.10 per 1000 litres

            C.        11 – 23 kilolitres               M5.51 per 1000 litres

            D.        Above 23 kilolitres            M7.62 per 1000 litres
 

    Non-Domestic Customer – Water

            All consumption                          M4.44 per 1000 litres
 

   WASA classifies any industry that utilises 2,000 (two thousand)
   kilolitres per day as a wet industry.

    Factories requiring large volumes of non-potable water may be
    able to source water directly at a much lower cost.
