News from the Field
How big is my bill?
An elderly lady called the Kingbrook Rural Water Association office in Arlington, South Dakota and said that her water bill was way too high for a woman living all alone.
When Lowell Corbin, Supervisor, drove out to her home and checked the meter and line, he could find nothing wrong.
He knocked on the door and asked her some questions about her water usage. As they were talking, Lowell heard the toilet flush.
Lowell asked, “I thought you live alone?” The lady affirmed. Lowell said, “Well, I just heard the toilet flush”.
The lady beamed and said, “Oh, that is my precious Lily, my cat. She just loves to flush the toilet and watch the water twirl down”.
