March 2014: The Water Pollution Control Authority (WPCA) of the City of Bridgeport selected Severn Trent Services to provide long-term operation, maintenance, management and customer services for the Authority’s wastewater collection and treatment systems. The 10-year contract includes two subsequent five-year options.
