New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission announces approval of City's petition
- Friday, July 25, 2008 - The New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission (PUC) announced today that it has approved the City’s petition to acquire the assets of the Pennichuck Water Works (PWW), the local water utility that provides drinking water to the City of Nashua from a core system located in Nashua and Merrimack.

Nashua Mayor Lozeau offered the following statement:

The PUC’s complex and lengthy decision (120 pages) provides the City with an excellent opportunity to assess its goals of protecting the public’s critical drinking water supply for future generations, improving operations and stabilizing rates under public ownership of the water system, as well as considering all other available options.

The City will immediately evaluate the impact of this decision and consider the potential cost and ramifications to the City and its ratepayers. Given the complexity of the issue, a thorough review and examination of the decision is necessary. I will have a further statement soon.
