The price of water tariffs has not adequately covered production and operational costs. Tariff prices are still based on an agreement with the public who tend to propose the cheapest price. The determination of proper tariff prices needs to be re-analyzed so that all production and operational costs are met, and a reserve budget is available for development.

Calculation results explained in the next mentoring with detailed explanations simple. The basic tariff price for clean water is a minimum of Rp. 8,362/m³ from the previous Rp. 5,000/m3.
