You’re guess is as good as ours. Everything regarding the continuity of telework has been met with silence or non-answers.

I’m sure management and executives will find a way to ruin things for those of us currently part time teleworking.

This is an interesting problem. I don’t like the idea of a private entity buying up local water systems, BUT many of the systems Aqua buys are not operating sustainability. By that I mean they are under billing and/or mismanaging their water system. Aqua has the personal and capability to correct these failing water systems, unfortunately that means higher bills.

Water systems, especially those in small communities, are in trouble. Their customers complain when rates raise, so authority-run systems are hesitant to raise rates and instead run the system at a loss or run the system without keeping up with critical maintenance. It’s a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation.

As much as it pains me I tend to side with Aqua-type take overs because that means more reliable safe drinking water for the community. Pumping, treating, and distributing drinking water is a significant undertaking.

Edit: I am a licensed geologist who spent many years working with drinking water in Pennsylvania. Gettin’ downvoted for simply stating the facts that lead to private water companies taking over problematic small water systems.
