“The Office of Consumer Counsel will advocate vigorously for Aquarion water customers throughout this rate proceeding to ensure a just and reasonable outcome. Rising water prices are a challenge across the country, and water is becoming increasingly unaffordable for many low-income households, which presents serious health and safety risks. I am dedicated to fighting for affordable and equitable water rates for all Connecticut residents,” said Consumer Counsel Claire Coleman.
