So what does this chart mean? It tells you what your minimum amount due will be for each quarter and how much water you can use for that billing tier.
Example:
A residential customer with a 5/8" meter size will be billed $14.15 for the quarter whether the customer uses 0 gallons or 5,000 gallons.
What if the same customer exceeds the allowance and uses 10,000 gallons?
The customer will be billed for the $14.15 plus $3.19 for each 1,000 gallons over 5,000. The bill will now total $30.10
If you are unsure of your size, call the NTM main office and we can tell you what it is. Residential meters are generally 5/8" or 3/4". One of the unique features of our district, is that if the customer pays their bill within 10 days of the billing date then the customer will receive a 4% discount off their bill.
SEWER CHARGE
Your sewer charge is based on 130% of your winter quarter charge |
For example: If a customer's winter quarter water bill is $42.35, then the sewer charge will be $55.05

The bills are always dated the 15th of the month and are due the 15th of the following month. If paid within 10 days of the billing date, a 4% discount is applied. If the bill is not paid by the due date, a $15.00 late fee is assessed. If the bill still remains unpaid by the 1st of the month following the due date, a past-due notice is sent to the customer. If we haven’t received payment or heard from the customer in 10 days from the date of the past-due notice, a shut-off notice is sent and a $25.00 shut-off notice charge is assessed. If we still haven’t heard anything or received payment within 10 days from the date of the shut-off notice, we turn off the customer’s water. A $50.00 turn-on fee is then charged to turn the water back on, in addition to the amount of the original bill and the late and shut-off notice charges. An additional $100.00 fee is charged for after hours turn-ons.
