Sewer User Fee

In July 2005 the Township of Upper St. Clair changed its cycle of collecting sanitary sewer user fees from a quarterly billing period to a monthly billing period.

The Township has contracted with the Pennsylvania American Water Company to provide the billing and collection of its monthly sewer user fees, which are presently included with a resident's water bill.

ALCOSAN (Allegheny County Sanitary Authority) provides sewage treatment for all Township residents and businesses based upon the water usage of each sewer user.

A Township Sewer Fund multiplier, established by the Board of Commissioners for the current budget year, is added to the ALCOSAN charges. The multiplier is used to recapture the Township's costs of maintaining the sewer lines and administering the billing and collection system.

Property owners are liable for the unpaid bills of their tenants. Home owners who are new residents may receive water/sewer bills for the previous owner. Buyers and sellers should make arrangements for payment of these bills at the time of the closing on the house.
