Once we receive your reply, we will change you to a paperless billing. You WILL NOT
receive a bill in the mail if you choose this option. Please be aware that you are responsible for prompt payment of the bill, and non-receipt of the bill is no excuse for non-payment or an extension past the due date to pay the bill. **See the CFJMA resolution in the Rates/Fees section of our web site.Water Services Act - CFJMA utilizes the Pennsylvania Water Services Act, 53 P.S. §§ 3102.101 et seq., to order the shut-off of water service to any property that becomes more than 30 days delinquent. Pursuant to the Act, CFJMA has the right to order the shut-off “until all overdue rentals, rates, charges and associated penalties and interest are paid.”
Please be advised that we are very aggressive in collecting delinquent debt.When any customer becomes 3 months delinquent by 30 days past due, CFJMA notifies the Shippensburg Borough Authority or the Guilford Water Authority to take appropriate steps in following procedure to shut off water service to your premises and water service will be terminated. Also, appropriate fees are added on the customer account for each step taken towards the shut-off.
