Leak adjustment and assistance information for VEOLIA WATER

A high bill does not automatically qualify for a credit. This page states only the provider-specific emergency, leak, or assistance details identified in public material.

1

Stop active water loss

Use the provider’s emergency route for public-side issues and a qualified repair route for private plumbing.

2

Preserve the evidence

Keep dated readings, photographs, parts receipts, contractor invoices, and proof that usage returned to normal.

3

Ask for the exact policy

Confirm the form, filing deadline, eligible repairs, calculation method, and payment expectation during review.

Provider-specific findings

Relief research for this provider

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
1-888-299-8972 is the published Pennsylvania Veolia customer-service number for account, service, and assistance questions. The public Pennsylvania pages reviewed do not expose a separate regional emergency leak number; customers should call this number and follow the emergency instructions, while immediate public-safety hazards should be reported to 911.
Leak-adjustment policy
The tariff does not promise a general credit for every actual-meter high bill. When Veolia has issued an estimated bill and a verified leak or other unknown non-beneficial loss caused usage above normal seasonal consumption, the customer cannot be liable for more than 150% of the average amount used during the corresponding prior-season period. Customers should report the suspected leak, repair the customer-owned plumbing promptly, and request a review with Veolia. Separately, Pennsylvania CAP participants at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level whose service is threatened with termination or already terminated can qualify for free leak-repair assistance up to $1,500 per calendar year; this is repair assistance, not a universal bill-credit formula.
Utility assistance program
Veolia Pennsylvania offers a Monthly Discount Program for residential customers with household income below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level, administered through SHARES; eligible customers can receive a discount on monthly service and water-usage charges. Veolia Cares provides temporary water-bill assistance, and the tariff states that CAP participants at or below 200% FPL can receive leak-repair assistance up to $1,500 per calendar year when service is threatened with termination or has been terminated. Conservation kits are available to qualifying seniors, customers with disabilities, and customers eligible for plumbing repairs. The public pages do not state a single monthly discount dollar cap.
State and federal aid connection
Veolia directs Pennsylvania customers to SHARES at https://sharesnation.org/ for the Monthly Discount Program and Veolia Cares qualification process. Its Pennsylvania assistance page also references payment plans and PromisePay, the Pennsylvania Homeowner Assistance Fund administered by PHFA, and Emergency Rental Assistance through Compass. Customers can call Veolia at 1-888-299-8972 for program details and eligibility; the utility does not publish a direct LIHWAP application on the reviewed pages.
