Wastewater treatment in Kingman is funded by a sewer service fee collected from the users. These funds are used for the maintenance, operation, and project financing for the sewer system and the wastewater treatment facility.
The wastewater lines and manhole repairs under a new maintenance and upgrade program were started in 2001 and 2002. However, due to continued inflow and infiltration within this system more work will need to be done as funds are available. In 2003 a new wastewater treatment plant was constructed to meet new clean water regulations.

RATE STRUCTURE:

$25.00 for the first 2,000 gallons or any fraction thereof;
$6.50 per thousand gallon thereafter.

Residential: A monthly user charge shall be based on the average monthly water usage during the first three months of each year (January, February, and March). If a residential user has not established a January, February, and March average, his monthly user charge shall be the median charge of all other residential contributors.

Commercial and Industrial user charges shall be based on the water metered during the current month. If a commercial or industrial user has a consumptive use of water, or in some manner uses water which is not returned to the wastewater collection system, the user charge for that contributor may be based on wastewater meter(s) or separate water meter(s) installed and maintained at the users expense, in a manner acceptable to the City. Said meters must be open and available for inspection and reading by an authorized City representative.

Additional rates for other than normal domestic waste are addressed in the city wastewater ordinance.
