Understand Your Water and Sewer Bill
Klickitat PUD’s 9 independent water systems are billed a base fee plus as water usage fee. The water usage fee is calculated based on actual usage per 1,000 gallons. To encourage conservation, we utilize a tiered rate structure. Rates and fees differ depending on the water/sewer system. The blocks for water usage are as follows:
- Block 1: 0–8,000 gallons for average household
- Block 2: 8,001–20,000 gallons for average household with lawn or garden.
- Block 3: 20,001 < significant additional watering for irrigation, swimming pool, etc.
Klickitat PUD owns and operates 9 independent water systems and 5 wastewater systems. The water systems include: Bickleton, Glenwood, Klickitat, Lyle, Ponderosa Park, Rimrock, Roosevelt, Wishram and Cliffs. The wastewater systems include: Glenwood, Klickitat, Lyle, Roosevelt and Wishram. Each system undergoes a budget review annually to ensure operating and capital expenses are identified and rate revenue support sufficient funds to cover system operations and improvements.
