On October 19, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the water assets of the Newberry Farms Mobile Home Park in York County, Pennsylvania. The Company began operating the existing system through an interconnection with its current distribution system on October 22, 2015.  The acquisition resulted in the addition of approximately 160 new water customers with purchase price and acquisition costs of approximately $129, of which $13 was paid in the first quarter of 2016.  The purchase price and acquisition costs approximated the depreciated original cost of the assets.  In 2016, the Company recorded an immaterial negative acquisition adjustment and will seek approval from the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, or PPUC, to expense the negative acquisition adjustment.
 
On November 2, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the water assets of Margaretta Mobile Home Park in York County, Pennsylvania.  The Company began operating the existing system through an interconnection with its current distribution system on November 3, 2015.  The acquisition resulted in the addition of approximately 65 new water customers with purchase price and acquisition costs of approximately $102 after a net transfer of $31 to related construction projects in the first quarter of 2016.  The purchase price and acquisition costs were more than the depreciated original cost of the assets.  In 2016, the Company recorded an acquisition adjustment of approximately $56 and will seek approval from the PPUC to amortize the acquisition adjustment over the remaining life of the acquired assets.
