Moulton Niguel Launches New Online Payment Portal

Moulton Niguel is changing its online bill payment portal from Online BillPay to MyWater MNWD. At MyWater MNWD, you’ll have access to even more tools to manage your water service.

Benefits of Enrolling in MyWater MNWD:

  • Manage your water use: You can track your water usage, start or stop service, make a payment, and view copies of your bills. All electronically, all from one place.
  • No cost payment options: You can pay your water bill with new lower, or no cost payment options. No cost options are available by adding your ACH/e-check account information. If you prefer to use a credit card, there is a processing fee of $2.95 per transaction.
  • Set up Auto Pay: You can now pay over the phone or set-up Auto Pay using either your bank account or credit card information.

Customers Briefed on the CA WaterFix 

As part of our ongoing efforts to educate the public about statewide water issues, we hosted a public forum to provide customers with a detailed briefing on the California WaterFix. The proposed project is considered a critical investment in water infrastructure, and would enhance the state’s water reliability, retrofit water supplies against earthquakes, and expand water storage capacity during the state’s perennial droughts.

Moulton Niguel & OC Coastkeeper Kick Off Water Education Field Trips

Through a partnership with the Orange County Coastkeeper, we held our first series of water education field trips with Aliso Viejo Middle School! Students were provided a presentation followed by a visit to the Aliso Creek where they were able to learn directly about the benefits of water efficiency to improve water quality in our region’s watersheds. Open to all middle school classes in the Moulton Niguel service area, this program allows students, teachers, and class chaperones to explore local watersheds and learn how to secure a sustainable water future.
