Summary of Rule Changes

Below is a summary of changes to the Operating Rules, Rates & Procedures for the Talkeetna Sewer & Water Service Area. To review the full document including added or changed fees and penalties, please click here.

The primary goal for the proposed changes to the Rules, Rates & Procedures is to combine the two documents into one user-friendly resource that is more representative of current Utility operations and Customer needs. Key changes to review include: 

• New requirement of grease traps for commercial Customers to prevent significant fat, oil, and grease (FOG) from entering the sewer system. This includes new penalties for failure to install a grease trap and improper discharge. There will be a 1-year grace period for installation from July 1, 2025.
• Elimination of the $385.00 Application for Utility Service fee. New Customers will not be required to submit a fee or deposit to receive services. 
• Updated definition of Interrupted Service to include all properties connected to the Service Area regardless of receiving services. Addition of a Seasonal Turn On/Off Service Request fee for Customers that request services to be temporarily turned off.
• Addition of a Disconnect Penalty if operators must physically terminate service by either shutting the Customer key box or plugging the Customer cleanout due to failure to pay or other negligence.
• Elimination or combining of unused or frequently used fees. This focuses on combining the Service Request tasks such as meter checks and key box locates. Service Request fees have also changed to include summer and winter prices.
