Pennsylvania American Water and Valley Township Invite Customers to Participate in Telephonic Public Input Hearing on Water and Wastewater System Acquisition

Current and potential future customers can provide input on the company’s application to acquire the systems; To participate, customers must register by 12 noon July 19

Pennsylvania American Water and Valley Township will join the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) to hear public comment on Pennsylvania American Water’s recent application to acquire the water and wastewater system assets of Valley Township, which serve approximately 1,700 and 3,100 customers, respectively, in Chester County. Pennsylvania American Water is the water and wastewater provider in the neighboring Coatesville area and is established in the community as a trusted local utility service provider.

According to Township officials, the water and wastewater system sale agreed upon in December 2019 is important for the Township to secure important resources for the community and be relieved of the financial burden of upgrading the aging systems to meet more rigorous regulations. Additional details about the proposed acquisition and potential future rate impact were included in a notice mailed to all Pennsylvania American Water customers and all current Valley Township customers in April and May 2021.
