Episode Details

West Virginia’s Lincoln County Public Service District is facing a potential $12.9 million buyout by West Virginia American Water, aimed at stabilizing a struggling water system after a two-month boil water advisory disrupted over 2,500 customers. The deal allocates $5.7 million to pay off debts and $432,500 for engineering upgrades, with the remainder going to the county. Regulators are reviewing whether to approve the sale, which would gradually align rates with American Water’s over two years — a move that could restore reliability but also raise concerns about cost.
