Project: Cost of Service Study
Client: Bayonne Municipal Utilities Authority
 |
The Bayonne Municipal Utilities Authority (MUA, Authority) provides water
and sewer utility service to the City of Bayonne. The MUA was formed pursuant
to N.J.S.A, 40:14B acquiring its facilities from the City of Bayonne.
The Authority has established user rates, fees and service charges as
provided for in N.J.S.A. 40:14B-21 and 40:14B-22. GSE was engaged by the
MUA to determine and allocate the costs of the services provided by the
Authority and to recommend rate structures that insure the Authority’s
rates are practicable, equitable and uniform. The particular challenge
addressed in our analyses involved equitable rate structures for the cost
of service associated with stormwater system operation and maintenance,
specifically due to the fact that Bayonne is comprised of both a combined
sewer and separate storm sewer system.
