This dashboard is designed to assist utility managers and local officials with benchmarking residential water rates against multiple attributes, including utility finances, system characteristics, customer base socioeconomic conditions, and geography. The EFC and the Hawai’i Safe Drinking Water Branch of the Department of Health collected and analyzed water rate structures for approximately 35 service providers in Hawai’i in 2016-17, accounting for approximately 90% of residents served by community water systems. The dashboard was provided as a resource to utilities as part of the Smart Management for Small Water Systems program, under a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Current dashboard displays rates as of January 1, 2021.
