ENTERPRISE FUND OVERVIEW OF REVENUES
2024-2025

WASTEWATER SURCHARGE:
All commercial or industrial customers who discharge to the POTW (Publicly Owned Treatment Works) that
are categorical, significant or high strength are in the monitored category. Their waste stream is then tested
for strength and regulated pollutants quarterly. The results of these tests are then used to calculate their
wastewater charges. These charges are based on the prevailing City of Fort Worth rate for BOD and TSS
plus a 10% premium. Sewer surcharge revenues are estimated based on an average year.

PENALTIES:
This represents penalties on past due water and wastewater accounts. The late charge for customer
accounts is ten percent of the balance due on the account. Revenue is based on historical trends. FY19/20
and FY20/21 revenue was down due to not assessing penalties for a portion of the year due to the COVID-19.
Increases beginning in FY22/23 are due to the 10% assessment of the past due balance instead of a previous
flat fee. Based on current trends and additional accounts, we expect to see an increase in revenue.
