Enforcement
No person will knowingly or intentionally allow the use of water from Aqua’s System for residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, governmental, or any other purpose in a manner contrary to any provision of the Drought Contingency Plan. In addition, no person will knowingly or intentionally allow the use of water from Aqua’s System in an amount in excess of that permitted by the drought response stage in effect at the time as directed by the General Manager in accordance with provisions of the Drought Contingency Plan. Aqua will take enforcement actions for violations of the drought stage restrictions or provisions of the Drought Contingency Plan.

First violation
Aqua may install a flow restrictor in the water line to limit the amount of water which is allowed to pass through the meter in a 24-hour period. Aqua will charge the installation cost of the flow restrictor to the member’s account. The cost is $100 for 5/8”, 3/4”, and 1” meters. Aqua will determine the cost for larger meters on a case-by-case basis.

Subsequent violations
Aqua may terminate water service at the meter for a period of seven (7) days or until the end of the calendar month, whichever is less and will charge a reconnect fee as stated in Aqua’s Water Service Tariff for restoration of service.
