Establishing a Successful and Sustainable Waterworks

Establishing a Successful and Sustainable Waterworks: Revenues, Rates, and Funding
August 19 - 21, 2025 - Richmond, Virginia
In the present economic climate, it is critical that waterworks personnel understand and implement a business plan that allows for an analysis of needs, budget development, and capital improvements. As a part of the planning process, one needs to consider the appropriate rate structure for a community, potential sources of grants or low interest loans, and communication with decision makers and the public. All of these subjects will be covered through lecture, class discussions, and hands-on computer activities.
