Carl, this is from 20-23.6:
ACCORDINGLY, in recognition of the above findings, and to help preserve and
maintain life, health, property or the public peace under RCW
43.06.220(1)(h), I prohibit all energy, telecommunications, and water
providers in Washington State from conducting the following activities: (1)
Disconnecting any residential customers from energy, telecommunications, or
water service due to nonpayment on an active account, except at the request
of the customer. (2) Refusing to reconnect any residential customer who has
been disconnected due to nonpayment; (3) Charging fees for late payment or
reconnection of energy, telecommunications, or water service; and (4)
Disconnecting service to any residential customer who has contacted the
utility to request assistance from the utilitys COVID-19 Customer Support
Program. These prohibitions on disconnecting, refusing to reconnect, and
charging late fees in this proclamation, as amended, are extended until
termination of the COVID-19 State of Emergency or 11:59 p.m. on October 15,
2020, whichever comes first.
I have advised all of my HOAs and private water providers not subject to
WUTC jurisdiction that this means them, too.
And you can expect that this will probably be renewed again in October.

Is the water system under the auspices of the WUTC? If so, they have
promulgated some rules I believe.

Interesting question came to my attention just now:
does the Governors pandemic moratorium preclude the operator of a private
water system from shutting-off a users water service?
If you dont know the answer, to whom might you refer me?
Many thanks, listmates.
