§ 75635 Groundwater Charge Collection Fees

• •If a water facility doesn't file a water report or pay their water fees on time, they can be charged extra money to cover the cost of collecting the late payment.
• •The extra charge is decided by the district to cover their trouble.
• •Sometimes, if there's a good reason, the extra charge can be reduced or even canceled.

A farm uses water from a local water facility but forgets to pay their water bill on time.

The water district can charge the farm extra money for having to collect the late payment. If the farm had a good reason, like a big storm damaged their office, the district might reduce or cancel the extra charge.
