** The Water Supply Fee
Formerly System Improvement Fee pays for costs that BexarMet incurs for existing water supply agreements and for acquiring new alternative water resources that enable the District to further reduce its dependence on the Edwards Aquifer. Specifically, this fee funds various water development programs, including: Bexar Metropolitan Water Development Corporation - lease, Canyon Regional Water Authority Agreement, Bexar Medina Atascosa Counties Water Control and Improvement District (BMA) Water Purchase Agreement, Water Exploration Company (WECo) Water Purchase Agreement and other water supply agreements.
*** The EAA Management Fee and the TCEQ Fee
Fee are pass-through fees that go to pay for regulatory assessments made by the EAA (Edwards Aquifer Authority), Trinity Glenrose Groundwater Conservation District and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).
