Port O’ Connor Improvement District has changed billing systems so please keep an eye out for your bill. If you go to www.eonlinebill.com/uswgu and create an account you can view your bill, pay your bill, view payment history, get set up with automatic bank draft, and paperless billing. If you have any billing questions or concerns, you may contact the office. The Port O’ Connor Improvement District office will be closed for Christmas Monday, December 25, 2017 and New Year’s day Monday, January 1, 2018.

With the colder temperatures residents with outside faucets or exposed water pipes, insulate pipes or turn off water to avoid a break in the line due to cold or freezing temps. Residents, who are leaving their home for the winter, please turn off water on the owner side of the water meter. Also, please verify the hot water tank is off. This will help prevent failure of the hot water tank and prevent frozen or broken lines this winter. Remember, January 2017 Port O’ Connor had freezing temperatures and several homes had damaged water lines due to the cold temperatures. Let’s try to avoid that as much as possible this year.

All residents of Port O Connor on the Air Vac System please take time to look around your yard for possible infiltration or inflow into the sewer system.  Such as clean out caps off, your candy cane or vent is loose allowing rain water to enter into the system.  Finding these problems will help in reducing unwanted water into our sewer system.

From POCID, Happy Holidays!
