<\/p>\n

The Philadelphia Water Department recently announced its proposal to seek rate changes, beginning October 1, 2012 to maintain the City\u2019s top-quality drinking water distribution, alleviate flooding, meet regulatory requirements and improve the quality of local rivers and streams. Even with the proposed additional rates, PWD\u2019s water and sewer charges will continue to be among the lowest in the region.<\/p>\n

Five public hearings have been scheduled to provide customers with an overview of PWD\u2019s programs and services and an opportunity to comment and ask questions. These are open to all members of the public. The Water Department will give a brief presentation about the rate increase process and will be available to answer questions. Food and refreshments will also be available! Here’s the schedule:<\/p>\n
