An Act amending Title 66 (Public Utilities) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in rates and distribution systems, further providing for valuation of acquired water and wastewater systems.
HB 943 requires water and wastewater utilities planning to sell their systems to obtain and publicly share three specific analyses from Pennsylvania's Independent Fiscal Office before any acquisition proceeding begins. These analyses must cover the costs/benefits of maintaining the utility under current ownership, benefits of acquisition by a public utility under this bill, and benefits under existing Section 1327. The bill mandates that this documentation be made available both in-person and on a public website. It takes effect 60 days after enactment.
