Pennsylvania American Water Invites Customers to Participate in PA Public Utility Commission Telephonic Public Input Hearings

During a series of telephonic hearings July 19-21, customers can provide input on the company’s rate request, driven by $1.13 billion invested in water and wastewater infrastructure

Pennsylvania American Water will join the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) to hear public comment on the company’s recent rate request during a series of six telephonic public hearings in July. Customers are invited to provide comment on the rate request Pennsylvania American Water filed on April 29, 2022, to adjust its water and wastewater rates reflecting $1.13 billion in water and wastewater system investments to be made through 2023 to continue providing safe and reliable service. As part of the filing, the company proposed an expanded, three-tiered approach to its current low-income discount program, as well as an expansion of its customer-owned lead service line replacement program. If approved, new rates would not go into effect until 2023 except for certain recently acquired systems where the rate increases are proposed to take effect at later dates.
