Case of the Week: 12/23/05

County: Harrison
Age: 82

Our client contacted us after receiving a letter from her local Water Board that a complaint was made regarding her water meters. According to the complaint she has two water meters on her property in violation of the West Virginia Code of Sate Rules. My client had this arrangrment for more than 18 years with the authorization of the Water Board. Apparently she arranged it that way so her disabled son could reside in an adjoining trailer on her property. The letter my client recieved requested that she respond by the end of the month. I contacted the Public Service Commission and the Water Board. Under the Rules, the Water Board can make an exception. Because our client's son is disabled and the second water meter was previously authorized, the complaint will be dismissed. My client does not need to take further action and may keep both water meters.
