Compensation for the acquisition of a water company pursuant to section 16-262o shall be determined by the procedures for determining compensation under section 25-42 or by agreement between the parties, provided the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority in consultation with the Department of Public Health, after a hearing, approves such agreement. The provisions of this section shall not apply to the sale of a private water company to a municipally owned and operated water company providing service in such municipality.
