"More than 97% of the nation's 156,000 public water systems are small systems. Small water systems can face unique financial and operational challenges in consistently providing drinking water that meets EPA standards."

The case for professional management

"Capacity development is the process through which water systems acquire and maintain adequate technical, managerial, and financial capacity, enabling them to consistently provide safe drinking water."

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
Building the Capacity of Drinking Water Systems

"Thoroughly trained and qualified operators are essential to protect public health through the safe and reliable operation and maintenance of water and wastewater treatment plants, distribution and collection systems, and water-reuse facilities."

American Water Works Association
Policy Statement on Operator Certification

"Safe drinking water and sanitary waste disposal systems are vital not only to public health, but also to the economic vitality of rural America."
