2 Supporting the fair, effective, and financially sustainable delivery of environmental programs through: Applied Research Teaching and Outreach Program Design and Evaluation How you pay for it matters 2
3 Outline Background Summary Today s Challenges Tomorrow s Challenges Customizing Responses and Initiatives
4 Spoiler Alert: Take-Aways The nature of access challenges is as fragmented and diverse as the water service provision models >> customize your solutions Many access challenges are magnified by isolation >> identify and address isolation (e.g. allow for rate revenue funded CAP) More precise assessments are hindered by available information and data >> improve your data Success initiatives almost always involve partnerships
5
6 Framing and Categorizing Access Challenges By SDG goals Today vs. tomorrow Drinking water vs. wastewater vs. water in the environment Community level vs. household/individual property level Environment vs. Technology vs. Governance vs. Economic Geographic Urban vs. rural Responsible parties and partners.

8 United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 6: Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all 6.1 Provide access to safe, affordable drinking water for all. 6.2 Provide access to adequate, equitable sanitation and hygiene for all. 6.3 Improve water quality by reducing pollution, dumping, and release of hazardous chemicals and materials. 6.4 Increase water-use efficiency and reduce water scarcity. 6.5 Implement integrated water resources management at all levels. 6.6 Protect and restore water-related ecosystems. 6.a: Expand international cooperation and capacity-building support to developing countries in water- and sanitation-related activities 6.b: Support and strengthen the participation of local communities in improving water and sanitation management

30 DISCUSSION, QUESTIONS, COMMENTS.
31 Panel Findings and Fragmented Governance Varied viewpoints Bifurcated regulatory and organizational structures. separately-managed silos for drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater at all levels of government. Recommendations
32 Paying for water and wastewater services in the United States Highly fragmented and decentralized with local government, non-profit, and for-profit service providers Federal legislation drives most environmental regulations/costs Federal government incentivizes private lending through interest tax exemptions and provides project level funding assistance to utilities through variety of federal programs 32
33 Paying for water and wastewater services in the United States (Continued) State governments establishes economic regulatory framework In most states, government/non-profit rate authority at local level and for-profit rate authority under state regulatory commissions Variation in state government involvement in project level funding Customer assistance programs primarily implemented at utility level with very limited federal or state involvement 33
34 General Types of Strategies Reduce cost of projects for a system (grants, loans, project delivery mechanisms) Reduce costs of providing service to all customers (asset management, consolidation etc.) Reduce amount of water that is used Reduce bill payment for subset of customers (Customer Assistance Programs)
35 Navigating Legal Pathways to Rate- Funded Customer Assistance Programs
36 Non Commission Regulated Utilities: Ability to Implement CAPS Funded by Ratepayer Revenues by State Podcast:
37 Moving beyond percent MHI Most used and most critiqued metric Historic focus on what the median person pays for water as a percent of income Metric has been used beyond what it was meant to be used for.
38 Water and Wastewater Residential Rates Affordability Assessment Tool On the EFC Website Go to and search for Affordability Assessment Tool Free, simplified Excel tool allowing you to examine several metrics to assess how affordable your rates are in your community
39 Conclusion The nature of access challenges is as fragmented and diverse as the water service provision models >> customize your solutions Many access challenges are magnified by isolation >> identify and address isolation (e.g. allow for rate revenue funded CAP) More precise assessments are hindered by available information and data >> improve your data Success initiatives almost always involve partnerships
