The average water use in the Saint Paul Regional Water Services service area is approximately 49-million gallons per day. The utility is entirely self-supporting with revenue obtained through the sale of water and payment for services provided to other entities. It is governed by the Board of Water Commissioners, which consists of three members of the Saint Paul City Council, two Saint Paul residents representing the public and two public members representing the suburbs served by the utility. As the utility broadens the services provided to nearby communities, more of these communities will be represented on the board. State law establishes the board and provides that the rates charged be adequate to cover all costs of operation and maintenance and to retire all bonds. No taxes are used to support the utility.
