The formula used to arrive at this potential capacity of a commercial/ business customer varies depending on the particular type type of a commercial/ business customer depending on the particular type of customer (i.e. shopping center, restaurant, miscellaneous stores/ shops, laundry, ect.). Additionally care has been taken to insure that commercial/ business customers do not receive any benefits greater than those received by a residential customer and insure that the residential customer dose not subsidize the commercial/ business program

.(B) The base for calculating each impact fee is the current system development fee for residential users which is based upon the usage rate of 300 gallons per day (GPD) per user as determined by sound engineering principals and adopted by the Alabama Department of Environmental Management.

(C) The following formulas are used to determine the total GPD by which a commercial/business user actually impacts the districts system. These formulas then determine the number of SD fees to be paid in the same method as the residential user (i.e. 300 GPD equals one certified user equals one SD fee

.(D) The approiate number of system development fees to be paid by a commercial/business shall be determined as follows:Total GPD (based upon the customer type, calculation basis and formulas set forth below) divided by 300 GAD ( basis for SD quantity) equals total number of certified users equals total SD fees to be charged.

for total system development fee.
Square ft (sf) Contained in patron occupied area Total sf/15sf patron= total number of patrons x 30 GPD/ patron Total GPD/ 300= Total # of SD fees 300 GPD
Seat Quanity
(actual # of patron seats)
Total # of seats x 30 GPD Total GPD/300= Total # of SD fees
Laundry Facility Washer Sizes
(listed by pounds)
(lbs) x 2 gal per lbs per cycle x 10 cycles per washer per day= GPD x # of washers= total GPD/ 300= 300 GPD
