			 installed from a building to the sewer main.
(6) "Sewerage project" means that portion of
			 a sewer main which has been financed by a developer contribution and which
			 connects the remainder of the municipal sewerage system and the developer's

				and whose property is outside of the subdivision of the developer who made the
				developer's contribution. A person making a sewer main extension from a
				previously installed sewer main extension for which a developer is paying or

Wisconsin Administrative Code › Public Service Commission › Chapter PSC 187 - Sewer main extension cost recovery › Section PSC 187.05 - Determining refund fees

Current through June 24, 2024
(1) Where the cost
			 of the sewer main extension is to be collected through special assessment by
			 the municipality against the abutting property, the procedures set forth under
			 ss.
			 66.0701
			 and
			 66.0703,
			 Stats., shall apply, and no additional contribution for the cost of the sewer
			 main extension will be required and no refund will be made to the
			 developer.
(2) When a new sewer
			 main is extended from an existing sewer main, which was not financed by
			 developer contributions, the new sewer main extension shall not be subject to
			 this chapter.
(3) Where the
			 developer is paying, or has paid, all or part of the cost of a sewer main
			 extension, part of the contribution may be refundable. If a person whose
			 property is outside of the development connects a sewer main extension to a
			 developer-financed sewer main within three years after the date of completion
			 of the developer's sewer main installation, within 60 days of connection the
			 person shall pay to the developer the following:
(a) Calculation of sewer main extension
			 refund. The developer shall be refunded a percentage of the costs of the
			 original sewerage project calculated using the Diameter Squared, Length of
			 Sewer Main method, where
Refund ($) = C × P
C = the cost or portion of the cost of the original sewerage
				project paid or to be paid by the developer ($)
P = [L2 × (D2)2 ] ÷ [L1 × (D1)2]; when P
				>= 0.50, set P = 0.50 (i.e. P may never be greater tha n 0.50 in calculating
				the refund)
L1 = Lineal feet of sewer main installed with the original
				sewerage project
D1 = Diameter in inches of sewer main L1
L2 = Lineal feet of sewer main installed with new sewer main
				extension
D2 = Diameter in inches of sewer main L2
Note: Where multiple sewer main diameters are involved,
				calculating "P" requires summing the individual products of each length of
				sewer main multiplied by its respective diameter squared.
(b) Calculation of additional sewer main
			 extensions. As additional sewer main extensions are made to the sewer main,
			 paid or to be paid by the developer, the cost of the original sewerage project
			 shall be redistributed on the basis of proportionality by expanding the
			 Diameter Squared, Length of Sewer Main Method to include the additional
			 extensions. Any calculations previously made under the formula shall be
			 recalculated to adjust and determine new reimbursement payments to all parties.
			 Reimbursement to the original developer shall never exceed 50% of the original
			 sewerage project cost. No refunds will be made for sewer main extensions that
			 do not directly connect to the sewer mains serving the original
			 development.
