| Summary |
The purpose of this filing is to address a shortfall in operational revenue, in both SVWW’s domestic and irrigation revenue divisions. Although SVWW’s last rate case review was in 2025, it was based on yearend 2023 results of operations. Since that time, the company has continued to see the impact of cost inflation pressures resulting in increases in operating costs, including energy costs and the costs for repairs and supporting infrastructure. The 13.37% increase reflects average annual cost inflation spread over the preceding two years since the last rate adjustment, approximately 6.69% per year. |
