David Nasatir and Tom Wyatt to Present at PML Spring Lunch & Learn on Municipal Utility Monetization
Obermayer partners David Nasatir and Tom Wyatt will present at the Pennsylvania Municipal League (PML) Spring Lunch and Learn, “Monetizing Municipal Water/Wastewater Utilities: Pitfalls, Possibilities, and Public Impact” on Wednesday, June 18, 2025.
This webinar addresses an important public debate in Pennsylvania: how to ensure long-term, safe, and affordable water and wastewater services for residents and businesses. Given that these services are the critical foundation sustaining human health and community development, numerous important viewpoints must be considered. Like tackling any important issue, principled disagreement is an important part of moving forward.
Attendees will gain:
-
An objective summary of the legal landscape regarding asset sales to PUC-regulated companies, including matters before the PA Supreme Court and recent rulemaking by the PUC
-
Insight into several non-PUC-regulated opportunities for municipalities to create economies of scale, exit the water or wastewater business, or create a reasonable and long-term stream of income from a water or wastewater system
-
A discussion of key environmental and regulatory issues as municipalities take stock of how to continue to efficiently and affordably operate water or wastewater systems.
