LAST CHANCE: Emergency Customer Relief Fund Nearly Exhausted

The Emergency Customer Relief Fund is nearing its end. Launched in December 2025 with $2.4 million, the fund has helped nearly 4,000 customers pay their WSSC Water bills with up to $750 in one-time assistance. Today, less than $60,000 is available, and the remaining funds are expected to be exhausted quickly. If you or someone you know may qualify, don't wait. Apply today! 

Save Water. Save Money.

Warmer weather is returning, and that often means higher water use around the house and yard. While last weekend's rain provided some much-needed relief, it was only a modest improvement to drought conditions. Most of Maryland remains in either a moderate or severe drought after several years of below-average rainfall, making wise water use more important than ever.

Fortunately, many water-saving habits are simple and can save you money! Whether you're filling a kiddie pool for some outdoor fun or getting ready for the day, using water wisely can help keep your bill in check. Simple actions like turning off the faucet while brushing your teeth or shaving can save gallons of water, while being mindful of outdoor water use can make an even bigger difference.

As you enjoy the weekend and the warmer months ahead, remember: save water, save money!
