The Pennsylvania American Water Company, Parkesburg's water supplier, filed an application with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) in late April asking for a $6.42 a month increase in rates for a typical residential customer.
The company’s request would bring a typical monthly residential water bill, using 4,150 gallons per month, to $54.87, according to a press release issued by the water company.
The company’s filing requests that the new rates become effective June 28, 2011.
However, the PUC typically suspends such requests for up to nine months to permit a complete investigation and analysis.
