Changes Coming to Area Water Bills
Virginia American Water and Alexandria Renew Enterprises will begin billing customers separately beginning in October.

announced Monday that its customers will receive a separate bill for wastewater treatment services beginning in October, meaning customers will soon receive two separate bills each quarter for their water service.
Service from AlexRenew, which over the weekend, is currently included in bills from Virginia American Water. The change was necessitated because Virginia American Water announced in 2011 that it would no longer provide third-party billing services.
Virginia American Water will continue to bill its customers quarterly for the cost of supplying water to homes and businesses. AlexRenew will bill customers quarterly as well.
