Delinquent Procedures
The Lake Chelan Reclamation District disconnects water for non-payment one (1) time per billing cycle. You will be mailed  two (2) billing statements before disconnection of water service. The second (2nd) billing statement is a friendly reminder and states the delinquent amount due and due date. This allows customers approximately 40-45 days, from the original bill date to make payments before their account becomes subject to disconnection. All delinquent payments must be received before the designated due date indicated on the Friendly Reminder. Service charges for delinquent accounts are as follows: Twenty dollars ($20) or 1% (whichever is greater) will be assessed as a late fee if not paid and received by the District Office by 4 p.m.

Turn-off day is the second Tuesday of every other month.   A list of the delinquent accounts is generated by the Billing Clerk.  The list is given to the Meter Readers to create a route for disconnection of water services. The Meter Readers disconnect the water services to all residents on the list. Accounts are updated as payments are received. Only upon payment of the full delinquent balance will the Meter Readers reinstate water services for accounts that have been turned off delinquent. Payments cannot be accepted in the field. 

NOTE:
The service charge for all water turn-offs shall be thirty dollars ($30).  Once balance has been paid in full and services wish to be resumed,  a water turn-on between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. is subject to an additional thirty dollar ($30) fee.  If you wish to have the water turned on during non-business hours or on a weekend (not a normal working day (Mon-Fri 8 am- 4 pm), the fee shall be ninety dollars ($90). Therefore, if you make a payment after 4:00 pm on turn-off day and you would like to have your services restored there is an additional service charge of $90.00. If you wish to avoid the additional charge, services can be restored first thing the following business day at the cost of thirty ($30). If your water services have been disconnected for non-payment, DO NOT cut the padlock to reactivate your own water services. This is considered an illegal turn-on. Meters found turned on illegally are removed until the total account balance and any additional fees and damages are paid.
