The Department of Environmental Management’s Wastewater Reclamation Division is reminding customers that sewer user fees have increased by an average of 3 percent as of July 1.

The rate increase is necessary to keep the County of Maui’s wastewater system financially self-supporting. Sewer user fees are structured so that each customer class pays its equitable share of operations, maintenance and repair of the wastewater infrastructure.
