Establishing Fair and Sustainable Solid Waste Rates

Empowering communities with transparent, data-driven solutions for financial stability and equitable service.

At NewGen, we assist municipalities and public utilities in developing defensible, cost-based solid waste rate structures grounded in established industry methodologies. Our approach integrates financial planning, cost of service (COS) analysis, and strategic rate design to provide fair, transparent, and sustainable outcomes that can withstand public scrutiny and regulatory review.

Our recent presentations and outreach efforts, including the 2025 Region 6 SWANA Conference, highlight the increasing need for utilities to modernize their planning, funding, and communication regarding solid waste services. From addressing rising capital costs to fairly allocating expenses across customer classes, NewGen supports every aspect of the COS and rate process.
