Frequently Asked Question

How does filling my pool affect my sewer bill?

Answer:

Residential properties are billed on a flat rate system, so filling your pool will not affect your sewer bill, but it may affect your water bill. Please call the Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County (MAWC) and check with them. If filling a pool on a Non-Residential property, you will be billed according to your water consumption provided to us by MAWC.
