==Public utilities== ===Water=== The Hampton Shaler Water Authority (HSWA) provides water to the borough. HSWA serves 23,600 customers across all or parts of ten municipalities in Allegheny County, north of the City of Pittsburgh. HSWA was incorporated in 2011 and started operations in January 2012 as the merged entity of Hampton Township Municipal Authority and the Shaler Water Department. HSWA typically pumps, treats, and distributes 5 to 6 million gallons of water per day to their customers. They maintain over 314 miles of distribution mainlines and appurtenances, ten water storage tanks, twelve pumping wells, and one water treatment plant.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://hswa-pa.org/index.php/about-us/|title=About Us – Hampton Shaler Water Authority|website=hswa-pa.org|access-date=April 19, 2018}}</ref> ===Waste water=== The Allegheny County Sanitary Authority (ALCOSAN) collects and treats waste water from the borough. Located along the Ohio River on Pittsburgh’s Northside, ALCOSAN provides wastewater treatment services to 83 communities. ALCOSAN's 59-acre treatment plant is one of the largest wastewater treatment facilities in the Ohio River Valley, processing up to 250 million gallons of wastewater daily. An environmentally and technologically focused organization, ALCOSAN recently completed a $400 million capital improvement program which addressed odor control, treatment capacity, solids handling and wet weather planning. We have now embarked on the largest public works project in the region’s history through $1 billion in engineering and construction projects to address combined sewer overflows.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.alcosan.org/AboutUs/tabid/54/Default.aspx|title=About Us|last=ALCOSAN|website=www.alcosan.org|access-date=April 19, 2018}}</ref> ===Refuse=== Waste Management is the refuse collector for the borough and conducts curbside pickup weekly. ===Recycling=== Curbside single stream recycling is provided by Waste Management to Borough residents. Residents are able to recycle aluminum, glass, metals cans, plastics, mixed paper, and cardboard with weekly pickup. Recycling was made available to Sharpsburg residents starting in early 2023.
