Kentucky American Water has filed a request with the Kentucky Public Service Commission to increase rates to support $108 million in water infrastructure investments throughout 2027. These upgrades aim to improve water quality, reliability, and system resilience for over half a million customers across 13 counties. If approved, the average residential customer using about 4,030 gallons would see an $8 monthly increase. The company also offers assistance programs to help low-income customers manage costs. The rate change will undergo a 10-month review process with opportunities for public input before final approval.
