This graph shows your kilowatt/gallon usage history for the past 13 months.

C.) What Have I Been Billed, What Do I Owe, and When Is It Due?

Any unpaid prior balance, a detailed list of services billed, and appropriate taxes are provided. The previous and present meter readings, along with the KWH usage are also shown for your information. The total amount due upon receipt of this bill is shown as well. If this amount is not paid by the penalty date indicated, a penalty will be added and the gross amount will be due.
