This section is included in your selections.

All water orders, shut-offs or changes must be placed with CVWD by an authorized person and must include the following information:

A. Meter number and sequence;

B. Name of landowner, company or ranch name;

C. Name of authorized person placing the order and a contact phone number; and

D. The quantity of water and the period of time during which said order is to be effective.

Please refer to Appendix B of this chapter for miscellaneous charges.

On the day upon which the order is to be put into effect, the zanjero will turn water on or off or make changes at the time when he or she passes the point of delivery on his or her regular scheduled run for that day.

Delivered water as ordered will run continuously day and night until ordered off. Water orders will not be accepted for runs of less than 12 hours and must be in multiples of 12 hours. All orders are subject to availability of water in the lateral involved and the ability of CVWD’s personnel to perform the additional work.

Where the demand for water exceeds the capacity of the sublateral pipeline or pump station, water shall be delivered in sequence to water users pursuant to orders received at the maximum rate of flow available or as much thereof as the water user shall order. Where the demand for water exceeds the available water supply, water orders may be delayed except under emergency conditions as determined by the district.
