English translation:Fixed charge per basinful (of water)
Explanation:
Or something along those lines - depending on what sort term you have used for Wasserpauschale in the other sentences and what sort of Becken it is.

What has led you to think it doesn't exist, Martina? It's a perfectly valid word (analagous to bowlful, plateful, spoonful, cupful, tankful and many more) and is listed in the Oxford English Dictionary, Chambers dictionary and other reputable sources, so it's a bit hard to make out a case for it "not existing".

Notes to answerer
Asker: dear armorel, just found out that the term proposed by you "basinful" does not exist. Did you perhaps mean something else?

Asker: I'm very sorry, Armorel. I just didn't find the word on leo.org or dict.cc. However, my Langenscheidt Muret Sanders also includes the word. Anyway, thanks for you help & sorry for my hurried and inappropriate comment. Have a nice week!
