$147,474 / 29,000,000 gal = $0.0051 / gal

A homeowner in Fayetteville GA would probably be paying anywhere from $30-$80 or so per month, but they certainly aren't getting nearly as much water per dollar as this data center.

Water is generally billed at 1k gal rate. $5.10 is still about 1/12 of what I pay (which is high because crumpling infrastructure).
