Mandatory Conservation (11/15/2023)

Even with the recent rains, river flows have fallen below the required minimum for this time of year, putting the Mandatory Water Conservation Program back in effect as of November 15, 2023. Read all about it here.

Customers are reminded that restrictions on water use are in place, including irrigation methods and timing. For details, please refer to the above Mandatory Conservation page and to the customer handout from your November 2014 bill, which can be found here.

Please call the office if you have any questions. As always, thank you for conserving water!

Voluntary Conservation (2/27/2023)

The North Fork of the Gualala River has increased consistently due to a series of storms that have hit our area over the last several weeks. River flows are now above the bypass requirement of 21 cubic feet per second (see here), which means that the district is back under Voluntary Water Conservation measures.

Customers were notified of the change by automated phone calls on February 27.

Notices for Pressure Zones 3 and 4 (1/9/2023)

Two important messages for some North Gualala Water Company customers. You can find your account number on your water bill.

  • For customers in pressure zone 3 in the Anchor Bay area (with a “3” in the second-to-last digit of their account number): The State Water Resources Control Board Division of Drinking Water, has determined that although pressure went low in Zone 3 service area, the main line pressure did not go below the required 5 psi so there is no need to issue a BOIL WATER ORDER to those affected customers.
  • For customers in pressure zone 4 in the Sunset Drive area (with a “4” in the second-to-last digit of their account number): There was a service line break in your area that caused a temporary water service interruption.  We are expecting the water service to be back in a couple of hours.  Please BOIL your water prior to use.  The official notice can be found at this link. For more information about this boil water order, please visit the “Boil Water” page on our site at https://ngwco.com/boil-water-orders-what-to-do/ or call our office at 707-884-3579 during our normal business hours of Monday through Thursday from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM.

Notice to Customers: Precautions & Policies During COVID-19

An automated call was sent out to all North Gualala Water Company customers on Thursday, March 19, 2020 around 5 pm with the following information.

“North Gualala Water Company is calling to inform its customers of some important precautions and policies put into place due to the COVID-19 virus situation.

  1. The office is closed to the public. Customers should call the office with inquiries or to schedule an in-person appointment with the staff.
  2. Water operators will continue working their regular hours: 8 am through 4:30 pm and weekends by a designated on-call operator.
  3. There are many payment methods available to water customers that do not require them to come to the office. These options are on the website, Facebook page, and posted on the front door. NGWC strongly encourages customers to make payments online or over the phone.
  4. Customers now have the option of scheduling payment pick-ups from their residence if they are unable or unwilling to use one of the existing payment options. Customers who wish to learn more or to schedule a payment pick up should call the office during working hours, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Thursday. The office is closed Fridays.
  5. There will be no service turn offs for non-payment for the next sixty (60) days or until further notice. Customers are still responsible for paying their full bills each month.
