Subject: INFORMATION REGARDING INDUSTRIAL DISCHARGE PERMIT FEE INCREASE
Thank you for your valued service in the City of Chula Vista (Chula Vista). As an industry with an Industrial Waste Discharge Permit to the Chula Vista’s sewer system, we want to inform you of a potential increase in fees. The routine services for permit holders in Chula Vista are administered through the City of San Diego (San Diego). San Diego’s program costs have increased since the fee was set back in 1984 and San Diego is proposing an increase (e.g. phasing the fee over a period of years). As such, San Diego is soliciting feedback on this increase. Attached are communications sent via email to all Industrial Permit holders including those in Chula Vista.
Chula Vista’s fees are set such that costs incurred are recovered by those incurring the costs. An increase in fees charged by San Diego to Chula Vista will likely result in a similar increase to your annual fees. The purpose of this letter is to inform Chula Vista Permit holders of the direct link between San Diego’s fee increase and the likely Chula Vista fee increase. Below is your current fee and the cost recovery annual fee.
Permit No. Current Fee Cost Recovery Fee
13-0048 $500 $2603
You should be receiving email communication directly from San Diego regarding the fees and public meetings; if you are not please contact Joy Newman at the City of San Diego at (858) 654-4106. Additionally, San Diego will be providing an informational presentation on the fee increase at the Chula Vista City Council meeting on March 23, 2021.
The Chula Vista City Council meetings begin at 5:00 p.m. and a copy of the agenda is available the previous Friday via the following web link:

These can be watched live and information is provided on the webpage at the link provided.
Although it is best to contact San Diego directly, I am happy to answer Chula Vista related questions. The best way to reach me while working remotely is at [email protected]. You can also call my phone at 619-476-2402 and leave a voicemail; your call will be returned within a week.
Sincerely,
