On July 28, the Louisville/Jefferson County Metropolitan Sewer District (MSD) Board approved a rate increase of 6.9 percent for MSD customers for wastewater, drainage and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) surcharge fees on all bills effective August 1, 2017. The average monthly residential wastewater bill (based on 5,000 gallons per month) issued on or after August 1, 2017, will reflect an increase of $3.03—from $43.84 to $46.87.

MSD will continue to offer a 30 percent discount on the surcharge and wastewater charges to qualified senior citizens.
