Missouri American Water Acquires Water, Wastewater Systems
Missouri American Water has acquired the Wardsville water and wastewater systems for $2.75 million.
Customers in Wardsville, located just south of Jefferson City, will have their meters changed beginning today and should receive their first invoice from Missouri American Water the week of June 26. Water and wastewater rates in the city are set by the Missouri Public Service Commission and will not change upon completion of the deal.
“This is an exciting day, both for the residents of Wardsville as well as Missouri American Water,” said Brent Haas, operations manager for Missouri American Water’s Jefferson City district, which Wardsville will be joining. “Wardsville residents can look forward to clean, safe drinking water, effective wastewater treatment and efficient system operation. Missouri American Water brings expertise to the water and wastewater industries that is unparalleled, and by joining our large customer base, we will be able to manage costs in Wardsville on an ongoing basis to help keep rates low.”
