The Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission will hold two telephonic hearings on Wednesday, Aug. 14 to gather public input on the rate increases proposed by Aqua Pennsylvania Inc. (Aqua Water) and Aqua Pennsylvania Wastewater Inc. (Aqua Wastewater).

The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission voted last week to suspend and investigate Aqua Pennsylvania Inc.’s proposed hikes in water and wastewater rates by 20% and 18%, respectively.
