Water Account Access (Web Portal) and Bill Payment Options

Access Your Water Account         WEB PORTAL

Please note when you sign up for "web access" you will no longer receive a paper bill. You have two options for a printed water billing; first, you can simply print your bill out for your records from the "web access", or secondly, if you wish to still have your water bill mailed, you will need to contact the office to have this completed.

One of the main purpose behind the "web access" was to help eliminate the lack of postal issuses in our customers not receiving the water billing. 

Fosterburg Water District has heard you, the customer, and in doing so we have reacted. Fosterburg Water has contacted their billing software provider to see how they could modify their software to address your concerns.  Over the past few years the postal system has been lacking in its efficiencies in either delivering the water billing to your residence or the opposite and more damaging, the delivery of your water payment back to the water office and in a timely fashion. As you may or may not know, Fosterburg Water District policy towards late arrival from the postal system does not constitute late fee forgiveness.  Therefore, Fosterburg Water District is pleased to announce a new service to our customers. By registering on our Web Portal, you will have the option to access your water account and set up whether or not to have an electronic notice given to you by means of a text or email. This electronic notice will be your prompt to know when to login into the web portal and gain access to your water account whereby you can review and print your bill, or history, or make a payment either by a credit card or e-check.  If this service is something that you are interested in taking advantage of please click here  to begin the process. Please note: For the first time logging on, you will be required to know your meter reading from your most current water bill. This is a one time security question.

Imagine a Day without Water

Imagine a Day without Water

October 01, 2019

Could you go a day without water? No water to drink or make coffee. No water to shower, brush your teeth, flush the toilet, or do laundry. Firefighters couldn't put out fires and farmers couldn't water their crops. 

We know that water is essential.  That’s why we want you to know about a nationwide educational effort called “Imagine a Day Without Water.” On October 23, the Value of Water Coalition is coordinating a national advocacy and educational event, Imagine a Day Without Water, to raise awareness about the most essential resource we have: Water.  Across the country, water agencies, mayors, engineers, contractors, business leaders, community members, schools, organizations, corporations, environmental advocates, and more are joining together to educate people about how water is essential, the challenges facing water and wastewater systems, and the need for investment.

Even though water is absolutely vital to everything we do, it too often is forgotten. Out of sight, out of mind. Many people take water service for granted. Clean, safe, reliable, and affordable water comes out of the tap and flows down the drain without a second thought. But the massive infrastructure, much of it underground, which brings water to homes and businesses, takes it away, and treats it, is aging. A water main breaks somewhere in the U.S. every two minutes. Most pipes have an average life expectancy of 50 years, but in many major cities, water pipes are more than 100 years old. Communities cannot afford to go a day without water if those systems reach their breaking points.

What is the message of Imagine a Day without Water? Keep reading . . .
