The filing submitted to the Missouri Public Service Commission covers projects scheduled between June 2025 and May 2028. According to company president Rich Svindland, the capital expenditure is necessary to ensure long-term reliability and water quality. Planned improvements include replacing roughly 140 miles of pipeline, upgrading storage tanks, and installing advanced treatment systems to mitigate risks from contaminants like PFAS.

Specific regional projects include flood-risk mitigation at the South Plant in St. Louis County, a new filtration building in Jefferson City, and plant expansions in St. Joseph and Joplin. If the commission approves the proposal, the average residential water bill in St. Louis County would rise by approximately $23 monthly, while customers elsewhere in the state would see an increase of about $15. The regulatory review process is expected to last 11 months, with final adjustments potentially taking effect in June 2027.
