Buyer seeks a qualified consultant to update a recently completed wastewater rate study. The update will review the currently approved rate structure to ensure adequate revenue for operations, capital improvements, and emergency repairs. The project follows unexpected infrastructure failures that cost $1.5M in emergency repairs with an additional $2M in near-term work needed. Buyer requires a 10-year analysis period with implementation of a five-year rate adjustment schedule.
