• In Murugi Mugumango, domestic consumers using up to six cubic metres will now pay Ksh25 per unit, an increase from Ksh113 for every six units.
• Eldoret is an exception, with its water utility, ELDOWAS, receiving a downward revision to Ksh84 per cubic metre for low-end domestic consumers, down from Ksh130.
• WASREB, the sector regulator, stated that public consultations were conducted in each area before the new rates were approved, as required by the Water Act.
