What if I have a leak? You are responsible for all water that goes through your meter. If you do not live at the property of your water meter, D'Arbonne Water recommends that you turn the water off with your shut-off valve when you are not at the property. 

D'Arbonne Water Policy states: The water system will do one leak adjustment per calendar year for leaks--but only after the leak is fixed. Adjustments are done after the minimum. (the first 2,000 gallons will remain $36. After that, the usage will be cut in half.)
