# §420.41. Schedule of water charges.


The schedule of water charges established in accordance with [§ 420.22](/cfr/18/420.22.md) shall be as follows:

- (a) $110 per million gallons for consumptive use, subject to [paragraph (c)](#c) of this section; and
- (b) $1.10 per million gallons for non-consumptive use, subject to [paragraph (c)](#c) of this section.
- (c) On July 1 of every year, beginning July 1, 2017, the rates established by this section will increase commensurate with any increase in the annual April 12-month Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Philadelphia, published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics during that year. 1 In any year in which the April 12-month CPI for Philadelphia declines or shows no change, the water charges rates will remain unchanged. Following any indexed adjustment made under this [paragraph (c)](#c), revised consumptive and non-consumptive use rates will be published in the Federal Register by July 1 and posted on the Commission's Web site. Interested parties may also obtain the rates by contacting the Commission directly during business hours.
