FYI to all Upper Mt Bethel and Portland water customers, the Authority hired WK Sales & Consulting to locate and paint curb stops (shut off valves) for all customers. Bill is wearing a green safety vest and drives a unmarked blue Chevy pickup truck. This process takes some time, so expect to see Bill for over a month. If you have any questions, please contact the Authority. Thank you.
