Pleasant Prairie Water

What Pleasant Prairie Water filed with PSC about the water it produced and the water it billed for, 2016–2025 — and what the filing does and does not let anyone verify.

Non-revenue water, FY2025

Where this figure comes from

(system input − billed authorized) ÷ system input × 100

  • system input volume 1,450 sheet Sheet1, cell H402 · thousands of gallons, declared in the column header, divided by 1,000 · net of water sold to wholesale customers, which is the volume entering this utility's own distribution system
  • billed authorized consumption 1,304 sheet Sheet1, cell I402 · thousands of gallons, declared in the column header, divided by 1,000

Recoverable annually
Not estimable from what PSC publishes. A loss percentage cannot be priced without the volume it is a share of.
Balance check
inapplicable
PSC derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so this decomposition holds by construction.

What the record shows

10.0% non-revenue water in FY2025, higher than 26% of the 562 Wisconsin systems that filed that year.

Debt outstanding, and what covers the interest

No bonds outstanding at the end of 2025. This is principal outstanding on the water utility's own balance sheet, on the Commission's own test: it files no electric operating report.

No bond balance is not the same as no debt. 2,310 of the 5,921 utility-years in this extract file no bonds, and many of those utilities pay interest anyway on an advance from their own municipality, which the Commission files under account 430 rather than as a bond.

This utility filed no interest expense for the year, so there is nothing for a coverage ratio to cover.

Figures are as filed with the Commission under Wis. Admin. Code ch. PSC 185 and are not audited as presented.

A filed value that cannot be true.
  • The components PSC publishes for FY2021 do not sum to the system input it publishes for the same filing — a defect in the published export, not in what the utility filed.

Each is reproduced exactly as filed and excluded from every figure computed on this page. A number that contradicts its own audit is a finding about the filing, not a gap in ours.

Water balance, FY2025 · 1,450 MG system input
Billed 1,304 MG Unbilled authorized 5.59 MG Apparent loss 0 MG Real loss 140 MG

PSC derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so these parts sum to the whole on every filing. What a filing can get wrong is which of these numbers were measured.

Where these volumes come from
  • System input 1,450 MG sheet Sheet1, cell H402 · thousands of gallons, declared in the column header, divided by 1,000 · net of water sold to wholesale customers, which is the volume entering this utility's own distribution system
  • Billed authorized 1,304 MG sheet Sheet1, cell I402 · thousands of gallons, declared in the column header, divided by 1,000
  • Unbilled authorized 5.59 MG sheet Sheet1, cell O402 · thousands of gallons, declared in the column header, divided by 1,000
  • Apparent loss 0 MG sheet Sheet1, cell R402 · thousands of gallons, declared in the column header, divided by 1,000
  • Real loss 140 MG sheet Sheet1, cell U402 · thousands of gallons, declared in the column header, divided by 1,000

Balance closure is inapplicable on every filed year above, so the column that repeated it is not shown. FY2016, FY2017, FY2018, FY2019, FY2020, FY2022, FY2023, FY2024, FY2025: PSC derives water losses from system input minus authorized consumption, so this decomposition holds by construction. FY2021: The components PSC publishes contradict each other, which is a defect in the export rather than in the filing. This is neither a pass nor a disclosure gap.

Other Wisconsin systems

PSC publishes no county or connection count for these systems, so they cannot be ranked against this one. These are other filers, not comparables.

Where is it going?

This page says how much. It cannot say which accounts, which zones, or which meters. That takes your billing history, your meter reads, and your production data reconciled against each other.

Our Water Loss Recovery Snapshot is three weeks, one flat fee, and the deliverable is a ranked list of specific accounts and zones with dollars and a confidence on each.

Sources and corrections. Every figure above is either filed by the utility or computed from filed figures, and each one says which. If a number here is wrong, it is either wrong in the filing or wrong in our reading of it — tell us which and we will correct the page and say what changed.
