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
- Bills are due 21 days after the issue date. The published policy does not create an additional grace period after that due date; a disconnect notice is issued when a monthly statement includes a prior balance.
- Late-fee rules
- If the full amount is not paid by the due date, CWLP applies a penalty of 1% per month with a minimum of $0.50. The penalty is calculated on the full past-due amount, including prior penalties, each month until paid. A returned payment currently carries a $20 service charge and must be reimbursed within five business days.
- Shut-off timeline
- The documented progression is monthly bill issued, payment due after 21 days, disconnect notice when a statement carries a prior balance, and possible service interruption if the delinquency remains unpaid. CWLP does not publish a fixed calendar day for physical water shutoff after the notice; the customer must pay all delinquent amounts plus the water reconnection charge before restoration.
- Warning and notice protocol
- CWLP says customers are notified of an impending disconnection by telephone or mail, and the notice includes the date service will be interrupted. Separate written water-leak notices can give 30 days for repair; failure to repair within that period can lead to disconnection within an additional 10 days.
- Reconnection costs
- The current published residential water reconnection charge is $35 after interruption, in addition to past-due amounts and any required deposit. The 2026 manual does not publish a separate after-hours or weekend water reconnection surcharge.
