The future of Chester Water Authority

A lot of people have an interest in the future of the Chester Water Authority.

There are the 42,000 customers in both Delaware and Chester counties.

There are the CWA workers.

There are those who fear the region could be losing one more iconic local business.

For met, it's personal. Chester Water Authority draws its sparkling water from the Octoraro Reservoir, just outside Oxford, Pa., the tiny town in southern Chester County were I grew up.

We talk about it on today's editorial page.
