The notes below may document a route, rule, or explicit public-information limit. General preparation steps are not represented as utility policy.
- Emergency reporting route
- 805-207-0603, Oxnard Water Emergency line available 24/7. General non-billing water service is 805-385-8136.
- Utility assistance program
- Project Assist provides a $25 monthly discount for qualified single-family primary residences during FY2026-2027, July 1, 2026-June 30, 2027, subject to limited first-come funding. Applicants submit a current Oxnard bill and proof of California CARE enrollment through SCE or SoCalGas; approved applications by the 15th are reflected in the following cycle. The Senior Rate Assistance Program offers a one-time $100 credit to account holders age 65 or older with a past-due balance.
- State and federal aid connection
- Oxnard describes California's Water Arrearage Payment Program, administered through the State Water Resources Control Board, as a system-directed credit program for eligible past-due pandemic-era charges rather than a customer cash application. The City also requires CARE proof for Project Assist and points customers to California assistance resources; no current federal LIHWAP application workflow was exposed on the active Oxnard payment pages.
