How often is my meter read?
To the extent possible, water meters are read each month, and corresponding bills are sent to customers for that month’s water use. However, this interval may change under special circumstances or situations.

Payments are due the 20th of each month.

My water is cloudy or brown. What do I do?
Cloudy (milky or whitish) water is caused by air in the line. You can run a faucet in an upstairs bathroom for a few minutes to see if it clears, but air in water usually resolves itself over time.
Brown or reddish water is caused when sediment in the pipeline is stirred up, usually from a main line break. Flush the lines in your home by letting them run until the water is clear.
How can I find out what is in my drinking water?
Water quality information can be found on our website in the Water Information section.
