If problems are not corrected, a violation will be issued and a fee will be assessed. During Emergency conditions, the district may issue a violation and fee without prior notice. If the customer is unavailable or refuses to correct the problem, service may be terminated and a fee will be assessed.
Customers may be given additional time to pursue corrective action. Those who protest the findings of a water waste investigation may request an outside hearing.
