The request reinforces the company\u2019s commitment to implementing critical system upgrades and continuing to improve water quality and reliability for its more than 2.4 million people served statewide.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThese investments directly benefit the communities we proudly serve and provide our customers with even more reliable service and improved water quality\u2014from treatment to the tap. It all underscores every employee\u2019s commitment to the health and safety of our customers and the communities we serve,\u201d said Pennsylvania American Water President Justin Ladner.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe proposed rate change will support the company\u2019s plans to invest $1.2 billion through mid-2027 to modernize and strengthen its water and wastewater systems in communities across Pennsylvania. This investment will replace 117 miles of aging water main, continue eliminating lead service lines, and address emerging contaminants such as PFAS in drinking water. The proposed rate change would also support critical wastewater system upgrades, including the replacement of 32 miles of aging sewer main.<\/p>\n<p>\nUnder the company\u2019s proposal, if approved, the typical residential water customer would see an increase of approximately $14 per month. Customers served by sanitary wastewater systems would see an increase of approximately $10 per month. Customers with combined stormwater and wastewater systems would see an increase of approximately $20 per month.<\/p>\n<p><b>Proposed Rate Adjustment to Reduce Summer Wastewater Charges<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nAs part of the request, Pennsylvania American Water is proposing a Deduct Adjustment, which calculates summertime wastewater charges based on a customer\u2019s average winter water usage when outdoor use is typically low.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Deduct Adjustment proposal provides a more accurate representation of the water entering the wastewater system, as it excludes seasonal outdoor uses such as lawn watering and car washing.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThis proposed adjustment allows customers to manage summer wastewater charges by accounting for outdoor water use,\u201d continued Ladner. \u201cIt\u2019s a change that can lead to real savings for many customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Proposed Utility Assistance Pilot for Low-Income Renters<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nAdditionally, Pennsylvania American Water is seeking permission from the PUC to implement a Renter Assistance Pilot Program (RAPP) to support low-income renters in master-metered buildings who are currently excluded from traditional utility aid. The pilot program would provide quarterly stipends for participating customers in Scranton and Butler, reflecting the company\u2019s existing discount levels.<\/p>\n<p>\nPennsylvania American Water remains committed to affordability and offers programs to assist income-eligible customers, including its H2O Help to Others assistance program, budget billing options and flexible payment plans.
