Customer Payment Responsibility
Legal-deeded property owners are responsible to pay bimonthly water and wastewater bills, regardless of their occupancy or use of the property. The only exceptions to this requirement are the suspension of service and foreclosure abatement policy (See Forms and Documents).

Tenant/Property Manager Billing Options
The Calaveras County Water District does not send paper copies of bills to tenants or property managers, unless a secondary bill-to application is submitted by the legal-deeded property owner (See Forms and Documents) and an annual fee of $15 is paid. The District only holds the legal deeded owner responsible to pay the bill and thus only sends paper copies of the bill to owners. If a legal deeded property owner would like their tenant to receive an electronic copy of their bill, they need to give the tenant their billing information to set up an account on www.ccwd.org. Property managers can also provide the owner information needed to set up accounts to help facilitate this electronic billing process.
