NOTICES

Application of Cashtown Water Company; Doc. Number A-210380

[26 Pa.B. 5854]

Commissioners Present:  John M. Quain, Chairperson; Lisa Crutchfield, Vice Chairperson; John Hanger; David W. Rolka; Robert K. Bloom

Public meeting held
November 14, 1996

Tentative Order

   The Commission has received information that Cashtown Water Company (Cashtown), a certified water utility, has abandoned service. In 1914 Cashtown had a certificate of public convenience from the Public Service Commission, predecessor to this Commission, to provide water distribution service to the public in Cashtown, Franklin Township, Adams County. As a grandfathered public utility, Cashtown was assigned a utility code number of 210380 by the Commission but never an ''A-docket'' number normally assigned to utilities holding certificates of public convenience.

   The Commission was notified of the abandonment in 1976, but apparently through an oversight, the abandonment was never formally approved by the Commission or the certificate of public convenience cancelled. Subsequently by letter dated June 27, 1995, the Franklin Township Board of Supervisors informed the Commission that Cashtown was purchased on July 23, 1976, by the Franklin Township Board of Supervisors, which in turn leased the company to the Franklin Township Water Authority on August 6, 1976.

   To the best of this Commission's knowledge, all jurisdictional service by Cashtown Water Company has been abandoned. Consequently, absent any contrary responses from concerned parties, this Commission will cancel the certificate issued to Cashtown; Therefore,

   It Is Ordered That:

   1.  The certificate of public convenience issued to Cashtown Water Company will be deemed abandoned if no response objecting to this action is received by this Commission within 20 days of the publication date of this order in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   2.  A copy of this order shall be served upon Cashtown Water Company at its last known address and on the Franklin Township Board of Supervisors, Franklin Township, Adams County, P. O. Box 309, Cashtown, PA 17310-0309.

   3.  The Secretary shall certify this Order and deposit it with the Legislative Reference Bureau for publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   4.  If no objection to this order is filed with the Commission within 20 days of the publication date in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, this order shall become final, and the Office of the Prothonotary of the Commission is hereby directed to cancel the certificate of public convenience of Cashtown Water Company.

JOHN G. ALFORD,   
Secretary
