San Antonio Water System works cooperatively with government agencies to comply with local, state and federal regulations. As the state-level environmental agency, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) generates part of its operating revenue from fees charged to utilities like SAWS.
To help recover the fees assessed by TCEQ, SAWS charges every customer a TCEQ pass-through fee.
The pass-through fee applies to all residential, commercial, and wholesale accounts.
