The following paragraphs explain that the Final Cost Allocation is bassi on actual flow and expenditures while the Statement of Charges is based on estimated flow and budgeted expenditures. We trust that this explanation will assist you in the continuation of an equitable charge system to your users. We have determined the actual wastewater flow from your city to be 212 million gallons (MG) in 1984 (refer to Attachment A - Final Sewage Flow Determination). This wastewater flow to the Metropolitan Disposal System (MDS) was based on the metered and unmeterei flow originating from your community. In late 1983, the Commission issued your community a "Statement of 1984 Sewer Service Charges". This "statement" was based on the expenditures approved in the Commission's 1984 Budget and on you community's 1984 estimated wastewater flow, which in early 1983 was estimated to be 198 MO. In accordance with the "Statement of 1984 Sewer Service Charges", your community paid the Commission $141,947.52 in 1984. The Commission has recently completed the 1984 Final Cost Allocation (Attachment B) . The Final Cost Allocation is based on the Commission's actual 1984 budget expenditures and on the actual 1984 wastewater flows. In accordance with the 1984 Final Cost Allocation, your charges are $127,413.23 for the 212 MG that were discharged to the MDS in 1984. Therefore, the Commission received an overpayment of $14,534.29 from your community ($141,947.52 - $127,413.23 = $14,534.29) in 1984. This amount will be credited on the 1986 *Statement of Sewer Service Charges".
