IEUA Regional Sewer Connection Fee

“The Wastewater Connection Fees are a one-time fee on new connections or tenant improvements to the Agency's regional wastewater system to support timely capacity expansion and improvement to meet future growth and economic development throughout the region. The regional wastewater connection is planned and designed using an EDU, or an average single-family residential unit, as the basis.”

“IEUA levies a fee on all new connections to its regional wastewater system. Connection fees are restricted to finance capital acquisition, construction, equipment, and process improvement costs for the IEUA's regional wastewater system.”

“"Service Area" means all territory now or hereafter served by the Community Sewer System owned, controlled or operated by any SCA. The IEUA service area includes the Cities of Chino, Chino Hills, Fontana, Montclair, Ontario, Upland, and the Cucamonga Valley Water District.”

“A Capital Capacity Reimbursement Payment shall be deposited or credited to a SCA's Capital Capacity Reimbursement Account for such a new connection or change of use at the time of the issuance of a building permit or a sewer connection permit, or for changes in the use of existing Commercial Units and Industrial Units, or the permits required therefor.”

“Pursuant to the Regional Contract and Regional Sewage Service Ordinance, new EDU connection fees are collected by each of IEUA's SCAs and held in trust in a Capital Capacity Reimbursement Account (CCRA) until requested, or "called", by IEUA.”

“For residential structures with a building permit issued prior to July 1, 1979, no Capital Capacity Reimbursement Account (CCRA) fees will be levied at the time of connection to the regional system. If the original permit was issued after 7/1/79, then the CCRA fees established at the time of permit issuance will apply.”

“Notwithstanding the preceding provisions, the amount which a SCA is required to have deposited in or credited to its Capital Capacity Reimbursement account for any such new connection or change of use shall be reduced by payments, if any, made by the SCA to IEUA for the new connection or change of use to support Supplemental Capital Outlay Payments, made at IEUA's request.”
