Equivalent Single-Family Connection definition
Equivalent Single-Family Connection or ESFC- shall mean the amount of capacity allocated to a commercial customer expressed in terms of the amount of capacity used by a single-family residence, as determined by the volume and type of wastewater discharge. Prior to initial connection of any Customer other than a single-family residential Customer, the District's Engineer shall calculate the number of ESFCs for the first year. The determination for the first year may be based on the capacity requested on behalf of the Customer. Following the first year of service, or the next January following the initial connection, the District shall recalculate the number of ESFCs for such Customers based on actual usage. For purposes of this calculation, each 8,000 gallons of water used shall be considered to equal one (1) ESFC. The number of ESFCs will be rounded upwards to the nearest 8,000 gallons. For example, 31,000 gallons equals 4 ESFCs while 33,000 gallons equals 5 ESFCs. ESFCs shall be recalculated by the District annually in January of each year based upon actual usage for the prior year.
