MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Md. (DC News Now) — A new temporary forgiveness program will give bill credits and waived fees on delinquent water bills to some WSSC Water customers for the month of June.
The “Get Current” program is a temporary water bill amnesty program to help customers get up-to-date and current with delinquent water and sewer bills.
WSSC Water commissioners approved the temporary water bill forgiveness program in April for eligible customers with overdue balances as of May 1. The move comes as officials try to provide some type of aid following the challenges from inflation and COVID-19 related struggles.
