Meter Tampering

Meter box, service can, the box with pipes and valves in it... Call it what you want, but please don't touch.

The Lewiston Orchards Irrigation District is responsible for the pipes in the street and each domestic/irrigation service can.  If you find yourself needing your water, irrigation or domestic, turned off or on, please contact the LOID office.  The District will respond at any time of day to turn on or off the water service request as a LOID crew member is on call at all times.

Often times we receive calls because a patron attempts to turn on or off the water themselves and something breaks.  LOID prefers to turn on and off the water service for our patrons.  It gives us a chance to inspect the water service and make any necessary repairs at that time. 

The water service may be discontinued for nonpayment on domestic and irrigation accounts.  If you suddenly find yourself without water, please call the District office for further assistance.  LOID checks the water services that have been turned off for nonpayment and if the water is turned back on before payment has been received the District will lock the service or completely remove the service until the account is paid in full. 

The LOID office phone number is (208) 743-8235.
