customer metering fee, the District's stormwater rate, PILOT and ROW fees) is slightly less than the average of other utilities in DC WASA's benchmark group. Without the stormwater and the PILOT and ROW fees, DC WASA's proposed average monthly residential bill is $2.44 or 4.4 percent less than the average for comparable utilities. The proposed future rate increases over the tenyear planning period are also consistent with the infrastructure needs identified by regional and national providers. Our rates remain very competitive with other regional and national providers of similar services.

This charge will assist DC WASA with meeting the cost associated with implementation of the federally mandated combined sewer overflow long term control plan. The new charge was developed using a methodology that more equitably distributes the cost of protecting the area waterways because impervious surface contributes to the volume of rainwater runoff into the District's sewer system.

At the end of FY 2009, the Rate Stabilization Fund (RSF) balance totaled $28.6 million. The RSF is in addition to the Board-required 120 calendar days of budgeted operations and maintenance reserve. Additional contributions will be determined each year based on actual financial performance, and only if all other Board policy and indenture requirements are met. The FY 2011 budget projects full utilization of the RSF by the end of the fiscal year. Customer Assistance Program (CAP) Discount - We are continuing our commitment to help improve the quality of life for those of our customers who are least able to pay, by providing relief through our customer assistance programs (CAP). Since 2001, we have provided eligible customers a discount of 4 Ccfs per month on their water bills. In FY 2009, DC WASA's Board of Directors approved the expansion of the Customer Assistance Program (CAP) to provide a discount on sewer charges in addition to the discount currently provided on water. In FY 2010, DC WASA's Board of Directors approved advertisement of a proposal to expand the Customer Assistance Program (CAP) to provide a discount on PILOT/ROW fees effective FY 2011. If adopted in September 2010, this discount would be in addition to the current discount provided on water and sewer. In FY 2009, this discount provided up to $277 in annual discounts to income eligible customers. In FY 2009, DC WASA provided discounts to 6,458 customers representing $903,915 through September 2009. The District Department of Environment, Office of Energy, administers this program for the Authority and several other local utilities. Budget Overview and Performance II - 17
