Aprivately held water company that serves 107,000 people across Virginia and State Corporation Commission staff have agreed to rate increases averaging 32.88% for water service and 8.3% for sewer service.

Aqua operates 191 water systems and nine sewer systems across the state, including small facilities in Caroline, Charles City, Dinwiddie, Fluvanna, Goochland, Hanover, King William, New Kent, Powhatan and Sussex counties.
