I'd like to try to figure out how much water was actually used to cost
$1600.

How much water (by gallon) did you get, for your $175 bill?


We pay about .04 per gallon. $1600 is about 40,000 gallons





Here they bill by the cubic foot. there are various additional charges
such as sewage


BTW: Some may not know that the root word for the word "plumber" comes
from the Latin "plumbum"

The chemical symbol for lead is Pb
