FIXING METER RATES 



DATA AS TO DOMESTIC TAKERS 



With these figures as a guide, an estimate may be made of 

 the probable sales under the domestic classification in the pro- 

 posed system. The average results will, of course, be considered, 

 but the peculiarities of the system for which estimate is being 

 made should be considered. 



Intermediate Services. We pass now to intermediate ser- 

 vices, representing larger takers, namely, those using between 

 820 and 8200 gallons per service daily. In the following table 

 statistics for these services are arranged in the same way as the 

 domestic takers and in addition a division of the amount of 

 water is made as it wou'd be classed under the proposed meter 

 rate schedule; that is to say, the first 820 gallons daily' from 

 each service is classed under the domestic rate, and only that 

 which follows is classed at the intermediate rate.
