Abstract
IPA’s Water Resources Agency has developed this report to summarize and compare residential water rates for public and investor-owned water purveyors in Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland. The report presents the range of residential water rates throughout Delaware and its contiguous states, variability in the water-rate structure among the purveyors, and percent change in the water rates over the past eight years. This report will serve water purveyors, the public, and federal, state, and local decision-makers.
This report is an update of the original water-rate inventory prepared in September 1996 and later reports— Economic Synthesis of Water Rates in Delaware and Surrounding River Basins (August 21, 2000) and Synthesis of Water Rates in Delaware and Contiguous States (July 2004).
