Many households benefit from having a water meter.
But some households with meters suffer hardship because they need to use large amounts of water for essential purposes. Assistance is now available to households who fall into this group and some may be eligible to receive help with their bill. This document will explain how the system works and what the new provisions are. The document will also help you to decide if your household may be eligible for assistance with metered water bills. If your household is eligible, then you will be able to opt to pay a fixed charge - the average household bill of your water company.
