If there is an unplanned service interruption, you can expect that we will do our best to restore your service as quickly and safely as possible.

At times, Easton Suburban Water Authority employees will need to do work on your property or street. Occasionally, this work may require us to dig up the street or your yard, resulting in possible damage to your property. In any such case, Easton Suburban Water Authority will attempt to minimize damage and reduce inconvenience. In all cases, you have the right to have your property restored to a comparable value. Employees and contractors will only stay on your property as long as is reasonably necessary.

Easton Suburban Water Authority will notify you as soon as possible of any changes to usage prices and/or service charges that affect your bill. We will make a public and online statement detailing any change in charges prior to the change taking effect.

We will do our best to make sure that Critical Care Customers have a continuous water supply. If you rely on water for a life support machine, or if you have any other type of critical care need that requires a continuous water supply, you will have the opportunity to register with Easton Suburban Water Authority as a critical care customer. As such, when possible, we will provide you with advance notification of planned service interruptions and assist you in making alternative arrangements during the interruption.
