BERKELEY-On August 1st, residents of Berkeley Township were without water for nearly a full day due to a water main break in the system operated by Aqua America.   Mayor Carmen Amato said due to the inconvenience, customers who were affected should be granted a credit on their next bill.

“We had a water main break on 8-1,” Amato said. “People were inconvenienced for almost a day. So I’m asking Aqua for a credit for those people that were affected. It is the least they can do!”

The break occurred in the area of Mill Creek and resulted in a loss of water pressure in the affected area.
