Pennsylvania American Water Announces $332,000 McKean County Water System Upgrade
Kane Borough project is scheduled to begin this week
KANE, Pa. (MAY 31, 2022) – Pennsylvania American Water announced today the start of construction to replace 1,300 feet of aging water main in Kane Borough to improve service reliability and fire protection for residents. The combined cost of these system improvements is approximately $332,000.
Weather permitting, Pennsylvania American Water contractors will upgrade the water main along Haines and Yarnell Streets, this week. Work hours are 7:00 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Work on weekends and evenings is not expected unless required to maintain the project schedule. Completion of these projects is expected in late summer 2022.
While connecting the new main to the distribution system, customers may experience a temporary service interruption. Customers might also experience a slight discoloration of water. If this happens, run the water until it is clear.
Crews will work as quickly as possible to shorten the length of these temporary inconveniences. Once the pipe is installed, a temporary restoration will occur in the excavated area.
Final street restoration will be completed in the fall of 2022. If you have a question, visit our website or call us at 1-800-565-7292.
