Provider-specific findings

Delinquency research for this provider

The notes below may document a rule or explain a specific public-information limit. Any active notice and direct provider confirmation remain controlling.

Grace period
Water and sewer bills are due upon receipt and become delinquent 25 days after the billing date. If a prior unpaid balance appears on the next bill, the customer has 10 days from that next regular billing date to pay before turn-off procedures begin. The printed bill and any formal shut-off notice control the operative deadline.
Late-fee rules
Rialto Water Services states that a delinquent account is charged a fee totaling 10% of current charges plus 1.5% of the past-due balance. If the bill includes an earlier unpaid balance and the customer does not cure it within the additional 10-day period, a $55.50 reconnection fee is added when service is turned off. The billing page separately lists a $113.90 weekend/holiday restoration charge payable by noon of the next working day. Returned-payment, meter, and other field charges may be assessed under the current utility schedule.
Shut-off timeline
Day 0 is the monthly billing date; the account is delinquent after 25 days. When a prior unpaid balance carries to the next bill, Rialto provides a further 10-day cure period from that next regular billing date, after which turn-off procedures begin. A standard reconnection fee of $55.50 is added to the bill. If restoration is requested on a weekend or holiday, the $113.90 restoration charge is payable by noon of the next working day. The City’s SB 998 policy and notice process govern residential service, including dispute, medical, financial-hardship, and alternative-payment protections.
Warning and notice protocol
Rialto adopts its Water Enterprise Policy under Resolution 7591 and publishes the policy in English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean, Tagalog, and Vietnamese. The reviewed billing page gives the 25-day delinquency and additional 10-day prior-balance timeline, while the SB 998 policy supplies formal notices, payment arrangements, disputes, and hardship protections. Customers should contact Rialto Water Services at (909) 820-2546 as soon as a delinquency appears; the published retail billing page does not specify a colored notice, automated call sequence, SMS warning, or door-hanger protocol. The City may use the formal policy’s mailed and posted notices for residential shutoff compliance.
Reconnection costs
The ordinary reconnection fee stated on the current Rialto Water Services billing page is $55.50 when a delinquent account has been turned off. If restoration is requested on a weekend or holiday, the charge is $113.90 and must be paid by noon of the next working day. Full past-due amounts and other applicable charges are also required. Confirm the exact field-restoration timing with the Veolia-operated office before submitting payment near a shutoff date.
