ARTICLE III. RESPONSIBILITIES OF CUSTOMER
3.1 ENTER AND INSPECT. Applicants for Company water and customers agree that duly
authorized employees of the Company, bearing proper credentials and identification,
shall be permitted to enter on their property for the purpose of inspection, observation,
measurement, sampling and testing, or for any other necessary and authorized purpose, in
accordance with the provisions of these Rules and Regulations.
3.2 MAINTENANCE OF SERVICE LINE. Each customer is responsible
for maintaining the entire length of their service line. The customer shall promptly repair
all leaks or breaks in the service line. If the Company knows of a break or leak in a
service line it shall notify the customer. The Company has the right, but not the
obligation, to cut off the water supply to any defective service line.
3.3 CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP. The customer is required to notify the Company upon
change of ownership of the property.
3.4 DISCONTINUANCE OF WATER SERVICE. Any customer wishing to discontinue
water service shall notify the Company in writing ten (10) days prior to the date of
discontinuance. Unless the Company receives this notification, the customer remains
liable for the cost of Company water service.
3.5 DAMAGE. The customer shall be responsible for damage to meters, curb stops, vaults,
and other Company facilities not caused by ordinary wear and tear.
3.6 STOP AND WASTE VALVE. The Company requires that every property is equipped
with a stop and waste valve. Failure of any customer to so equip their property served by
the Company will under no circumstances alter the liability of the Company.
3.7 WATER PRESSURE. The Company is not liable for damage to plumbing or other
facilities of the customer caused by excess water pressure, stoppage of water supply, or
loss of water pressure. It is, therefore, suggested that all customers install pressure
reducing valves and/or airvac valves.
