If the owner has been notified that a repair is needed and the Owner fails to allow the repair and inspection by the Authority, if service is not done by the Authority, after 60 days from the date of the notice, the flat rate for water usage will be $100.00 per EDU based on the number of EDU's normally billed by the NCCMA. This flat rate charge will remain in effect until the meter is functional or until the service is terminated after the proper termination process is complete. Also if access is not available due to a dog or fence for which we cannot enter.

Other Repairs:   $60.00 / hour

If the Authority performs work that is done for the customer that is the responsibility of the customer the rate for such service is $60.00 per hour plus the actual cost of materials used. An example would be a replacement of the curb box if hit by a mower or equipment that causes damages to the valve or curb box.

This charge includes requests by the Owner to shut off service at the owners request during non-business hours. The restoration fee listed above will also apply whenever the restoration is done.

If the work is done by an outside agency or contractor, the charges will be the actual cost to the Authority plus a fee of 10% billed to the Owner. An example is a request to shut off a service and the service is not accessible and requires excavation.

Services for work related for billing for NCCMA will be as agreed to by both Authorities.
