1. Not less than seven (7) days notice shall be given by the water user to the Corporation's office in person or in writing to discontinue service or change occupancy.
2. The outgoing party shall be responsible for all water consumed up to the time of departure or the time specified for departure, whichever period is longest.
3. Membership, water hook-up and/or capacity, shall remain at the location of the service connection.

A Member selling property on which a service connection is located shall relinquish his or her membership and claim on the water hook-up and associated capacity in Southern Black Hills. A Member is not entitled to transfer his membership, water hook-up and/or capacity, to a new property location, except prior to the date set for the bid opening for construction of the Rural Service area(s) involved. Unless however, such transfer is deemed at the sole and exclusive discretion of Southern Black Hills, to be in the best interest of Southern Black Hills.
4. A Member is not entitled to sell, gift or otherwise transfer his membership, water hook-up or capacity to another member (or prospective member) at a new property location. Unless however, such sale, gift or transfer is deemed at the sole and exclusive discretion of Southern Black Hills, to be in the best interest of Southern Black Hills.
