customers who, incidental to the purchase of such water, utilize a waste-water
sewer system owned or operated by a county, municipality, or local authority to
dispose of or discharge the water purchased shall furnish to such political
subdivision the amount of water consumed by each individually metered customer
account during each billing period.

in paragraph (1) of this subsection that a customer has failed to timely pay any
charges for the use of the waste-water sewer system, the private water supplier
shall, within five business days of such notice, suspend water supply to that
customer. The water supply to such customer shall remain suspended until such
political subdivision notifies the water supplier to resume water service. The
