SHEA, Justice.

Plaintiff appeals from a judgment of the Lincoln County District Court that the Public Service Commission did not have jurisdiction over municipal sewage systems and the sewage rates as set by the Town of Eureka were not arbitrary or discriminatory. We hold the Public Service Commission does have jurisdiction over municipal sewage rates and accordingly, the issue of fairness of the sewage rates is one the Public Service Commission must determine.
