MAYOR GIULIANI AND DEP COMMISSIONER MIELE ANNOUNCE QUEENS WATER BILLING OUTREACH PROGRAM

Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani and Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) Commissioner Joel Miele today announced the creation of the Mayor's Water Billing Outreach Program, a series of meetings held throughout the City which will provide local residents with the opportunity to resolve account-specific problems and to receive general information about their billing. The first series of meetings will occur in Queens on Wednesday, October 23 and Wednesday, October 30, 1996 from 6pm to 10pm, at various locations listed below.

"The Water Billing Outreach Program is one important component of the administration's continuing efforts to improve DEP's water and sewer billing operation," Mayor Giuliani said. "Commissioner Miele and I are committed to ensuring that home owners are properly and accurately billed. I urge all residents to take advantage of this outreach program."

As part of the Mayor's Water Billing Outreach Program, DEP Customer Service staff, equipped with water billing computers, will be on hand to resolve water bill questions. Residents should bring their most recent water and sewer bills with them. Additional consumer services, such as conservation assistance, will be available. A list of Queens locations follows:
