The Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County reached a tentative agreement to purchase the small sewer system that currently serves about 800 East Huntingdon residents.
Authority officials said Wednesday the deal, which is pending approval from both township officials and municipal authority board members, would transfer East Huntingdon’s sewage treatment plant and about 800 customers to the county system.
East Huntingdon officials are expected to vote on the proposed deal in the next several weeks. Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County Manager Michael Kukura said the county board is slated to vote on the purchase on Jan. 20.
