West Virginia American Water has been flushing out water lines in western Fayette County, where customers used to get their water from the Page-Kincaid Public Service District.
Customers formerly served by a locally run public service district in western Fayette County will now have their water needs met by a new provider West Virginia America Water.
By contrast, West Virginia American Water is one of the state’s largest regulated utilities. The company technically took over the 650-customer area in September, when it began replacing equipment and connecting customers to its New River treatment site in the town of Beckwith.
