What about people who have public sewer but not public water (i.e., a private well)?
A small percentage of households in Enfield connected to the sewer system have private wells rather than public water. Well users will be charged quarterly based on the average consumption by user classification: Residential and small non-residential 16,000 gallons per quarter for FY13/14 (~$54.24); Commercial and industrial 45,000 gallons per quarter for FY13/14 (~$194.80).
