Tax
The Water District is exempt from Nevada Sales Tax and Federal Excise Tax for the procurement of goods.
Bill Processing
The Water District pays its bills within 30 days of receipt of the invoice or delivery of the products or services, whichever is later. Special arrangements can be made for earlier payment.
Direct Deposit for Vendors
Vendors may enroll in direct deposit for faster payment. To enroll, fill out the Accounts Payable Direct Deposit Form and fax it to (702) 258-7153. Your completion of the enrollment forms signifies your acceptance of the terms and conditions.
Purchasing Goods and Services
The majority of all purchases are made by the Water District's Purchasing Division. All departments have access to User Purchase Orders, which allow the departments to place orders for small purchases under $1,000 or to place orders against existing Blanket Purchase Orders.
Sustainable Practices
The Water District supports and promotes Environmentally Preferable Purchasing (EPP). The EPP program encourages and assists agencies purchase environment-friendly products or services--those having a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing products or services that serve the same purpose.
