On November 20, 2024, the Logan Todd Regional Water Commission advised East Logan Water District that, effective January 1, 2025, the wholesale water service rate assessed to East Logan Water District would increase from $3.33 per 1,000 gallons to $3.36 per 1,000 gallons. On December 17, 2024, East Logan Water District adjusted its rates by $0.05 per 1,000 gallons, effective January 1, 2025, to reflect the increase in its cost of purchased water due to the increase in the Logan Todd Regional Water Commission’s rate for wholesale water service. On December 27, 2024, East Logan Water District applied to the Public Service Commission for approval of those adjusted rates. On January 24, 2025, the Public Service Commission approved the rates set forth below for service rendered on and after January 1, 2025. – Water Rates

Detecting Leaks:

If you suspect you have a leak and don’t see water running, here are some steps you can take to track down the potential leak:

Walk along the water line going to your house in your yard. Look for these physical signs of a leak…

• Grass that is greener than other areas
• Bleached out grass
• A puddle (even a small one) when it should be dry
• Grass that is taller or more lush than other areas
• Spongy ground

All of these signify a possible leak and should be addressed immediately to avoid high water bills!

Finding and Repairing Leaks:

If you suspect you have a leak, follow these steps to try to find it:

• Find your meter
• Open the lid to your meter
• Clean dirt and/or debris off the register
• Watch your meter for 5 minutes to see if black triangle or red circle is turning, or if the numbers on the face of the meter are turning.
• The meter should only be turning when you are using water. If it is turning and you are not actively using the water, then you have a leak somewhere.
• If it’s turning, turn off the valve on your commodes
• Turn off any valves going to any barns or outbuildings to isolate leak.
• Go back and check the meter to see if it’s still turning after you shut each valve off until meter stops turning.

You have successfully found the leak! Take steps to fix the leak as soon as possible. Once the leak has been repaired, call the office to see if you are eligible for a leak adjustment.
