===Climbing rates due to debt===
* Water Rate Increases in 2006 as reported in the Post-Gazette, November 28, 2005. A decision could come by Dec. 16; hike would be third in two years
:Pittsburgh's water provider is swamped with debt and may reach for ratepayers' checkbooks for the third time in two years.
:On Nov. 18, a consultant recommended that the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority raise rates 8 percent next year.
* Eric Hyle's editorial on rising water rates from Dec 7, 2005. The 8 percent rate increase the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority is mulling might not seem excessive at first. It's less than half the authority's 17 percent rate hike in January, which was less than its 19 percent increase in 2004.
