Since 1981, NACWA has conducted a triennial financial survey of its membership to provide clean water agencies, government officials, and the public with important insight into the financing and management of public clean water utilities.
Like previous surveys, the 2020 Survey presents industry statistics and trend data on utility revenues, expenses, debt financing, capital needs, sewer service charges, residential and industrial rates and rate structures, staffing levels, and salaries. In addition, the Survey expands on this baseline of data and presents information on the status of asset management programs, financial statement data, staff licensing requirements, and energy use and costs.
