Harwich Water Department - Billing & Payments
Water Rates
Your Current Water Bill
The Harwich Water Department water rates are based upon consumption;
inclining block rates have been set to encourage conservation.
Thus, the highest users
pay a higher rate, so using less water will save you money.
Your Future Water Bill
At the current rate of increase of water consumption, Harwich will soon need
to develop a new well or wells to meet demand. This process is extremely
expensive and time consuming. Conservation measures, such as limitations
on outdoor water use and water efficient landscape designs and practices
have been shown to result in average water savings of up to fifty percent.
Such savings would allow Harwich to sustain itself for the foreseeable future
on existing supplies.
Your Time and Energy
Limiting outdoor water use and implementing water efficient landscape designs
and practices not only saves you time, energy, and money, but it is also
better for the environment.
