Authorization for Release of Information to Third Party
As per federal and state regulations, utility companies are not allowed to release information on a customer's account to any third party without written authorization from the customer or a court order requesting the information. Customers that would like another person or party to have access to their water service account information and access for full account services must complete an Authorization for Release of Information to Third Party form and remit to your local customer service office. For an Authorization for Release of Information to Third Party form click here. For more information please contact your local customer service office.
Billing and Due Dates
All current billings are due 20 days after billing dates. If a current bill is unpaid after 20 days, the account will be assessed with a 5% delinquent penalty. All bills unpaid 30 days after the billing date will be subject to disconnection of water service. A notice of nonpayment will be mailed to the last known address and will include amounts due and disconnect date. If service is disconnected for nonpayment, total amount due on the account, a reconnection charge and possibly an additional deposit must be paid at a LAWCO customer service office before water service will be restored.
