ADVANCING ADVOCACY THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS 2016-2017 Year at a Glance

ADVANCING OUR MEMBERSHIP We Are Our Members

NACWA membership is growing: not just in numbers, but in diversity, unity and collaboration. NACWA has historically represented public agencies of all sizes—small, medium, and large—based in every geographic region of the country. This year’s new members reflect that diversity as well, thanks in large part to the Board of Director's renewed focus on small and medium utility outreach (and to the efforts of existing members who helped recruit others).

As we set our sights on our long-term “1000-member” goal, and work toward the vision of representing all utilities as NACWA members, we rededicate ourselves to two principles that drive us to achieve our objectives: (1) Unity as the foundation of advocacy victories that shape the clean water landscape, and (2) Partnerships that ensure beneficial results for the water sector.

One Stick, Two Stick The Power of Unity

An old man is dying and calls his people to his side, and he gives a short, sturdy stick to each of his many offspring, wives, and relatives.

“Break the stick,” he instructs them.

With some effort, they all snap their sticks in half.

“This is how it is when a soul is alone without anyone: he can be easily broken.”

- A Navajo Parable

The old man next gives each of his kin another stick, and says,

“Put your sticks together in bundles of twos and threes.”

“Now, break these bundles in half.”

No one can break the sticks when there are two or more in a bundle.

“This is how I would like you to live after I pass on.”

The old man smiles.

“We are strong when we stand with another soul.

When we are with another, we cannot be broken.”

LETTER FROM THE NACWA PRESIDENT & CEO

R

ecently, as part of NACWA’s effort to publish a new magazine called the Clean Water Advocate, we wrote an article that focused on the Native American parable “One Stick, Two Stick” (see above). You will likely agree that it neatly illustrates the power of an association—much like a family or village—that stems from two simple yet powerful principles: (1) alone we break, but bundled together, we are unbreakable, and (2) only through a shared enterprise can we muster the strength to shape the future—and by doing so, ensure a lasting legacy.

As you will see in the pages of the Year at a Glance annual report that follows, NACWA has worked hard to defend the gains for clean water that we’ve achieved to date and to shape a future that places municipal clean water agencies at the center of emerging environmental policy. Here are a few initiatives that show the unmatched return on investment for NACWA members: •

NACWA has added more than 35 new members year-to-date, demonstrating a growing awareness of the need for clean water agencies – large, medium, and small — to unite and have a proactive national agenda;

•

NACWA, through key partnerships, has successfully defended the funding level for State Revolving Funds (SRFs) and has ensured funding for the Water Infrastructure Financing and Innovation Authority (WIFIA) in both the Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 budget and the Trump Administration’s proposed FY2018 budget (notably, these are the only major programs in the budgets that avoided cuts);

•

NACWA has set up an online “Utility Executive Peer-to-Peer Network”, providing a venue (and valuable opportunity) for utility executives to share best practices and develop solutions that can lift the sector as whole, with an equal focus on large, medium, and small agencies; and

•

NACWA has done all of this with an unmatched spirit of collaboration with its fellow sector organizations, perhaps best exemplified by Water Week 2017, which enjoyed participation from the broadest array of water sector organizations ever, netting well over 1,000 Capitol Hill office visits by sector leaders specifically to elevate clean and safe water as a top national priority.

The Navajo wise man’s charge to his family: “Put your sticks together in bundles of twos and threes” continues to resonate with us. We firmly believe that NACWA must represent a diverse group of utilities – urban and rural; wet and arid; east and west; small and large. We also believe that it is critical to “stick” together (pardon the pun) in order to succeed.

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to another year of advancing a strong and thoughtful clean water agenda.

Ray Marshall, President (2016-2017) Executive Director Narragansett Bay Commission

ADVANCING OUR ENGAGEMENT Strength in Numbers OUR IMPACT

NACWA’s ability to have an effective and proactive advocacy platform comes directly from the combined, unified activity of our members.

Engagement within NACWA is on the rise. With new offerings like regional meetings and workshops, One-2-One Networking, online forums and new publications, our member agencies individually, and advocacy voice collectively, grow stronger. This, together with increased collaboration with other influential organizations, marked a watershed year for the Association and the entire clean water sector.

OUR 2017 ENGAGEMENT HIGHLIGHTS NACWA offered more free web seminars than ever, informing members and potential members alike on the full spectrum of clean water issues. Session statistics show increased attendance, with 700+ unique “connection sites” - which include multiple users per connection - participating across the nation.

NACWA’s national conferences, seminars and workshops saw increased engagement with 1,500+ attendees convening and collaborating with thought-leaders and colleagues from across the country and the world.

NACWA’s advocacy web seminar, Where Are We Now? Clean Water Advocacy in the New Political Landscape, saw more than 200 “connection site” attendees, establishing a potent new platform for members to regularly assess the political and advocacy landscape, and identify potential areas of opportunity for utilities, their communities, and NACWA.

NACWA communications saw the rebrand and release of two new online newsletters, the Clean Water Current and NACWA Connect, as well as the inaugural issue of its new bi-annual magazine, the Clean Water Advocate.

NACWA debuted its first communications workshop, Strategic Communications: H2O following the 2017 Summer Conference in St. Louis, and established it as an annual stand-alone event.

NACWA brought the Association to members and potential members alike through regional forums in EPA Regions 4, 6, and 7 – reaching hundreds of local utility representatives, and learning about their challenges and successes.

Water Week’s first-ever Rally for Water on the Capitol grounds turned out a strong crowd and high-profile speakers, as Members of Congress, state representatives and utility leaders joined together to call for increased water infrastructure funding.

ADVANCING MEMBER RECOGNITION

Excellence in Carrying out the Clean Water Mission NACWA takes pride in celebrating the achievements of its member agencies through national recognition and awards. In collaboration with other water sector organizations, we recognize utilities of the future, support the sharing of successful strategies, address utility challenges, and identify opportunities for innovation and peer-to-peer information exchange. We can also share the outstanding stories of our members!

RECOGNITION GROWTH The Peak Performance Awards celebrate operational excellence at member agency facilities. This year, NACWA awarded 471 facilities—an increase of 20 over last year’s total. Notable:

•

159 facilities earned Platinum Peak Performance Awards for 100% water quality performance permit compliance for five or more years—16 earned firsttime Platinum status, while 143 have maintained perfect compliance for 6 - 28 years.

•

159 facilities earned Gold Awards for 100% perfect water quality performance compliance in calendar year 2016, and 153 facilities earned Silver Awards for having no more than five water quality performance permit violations in the calendar year.

The National Environmental Achievement Awards honor member agencies for outstanding contributions to environmental protection and the clean water community. This year, NACWA honored 17 individuals and 25 agency projects and programs. Award-winning member agencies embody the qualities of a UOTF, demonstrating innovation, creativity, and technical advancement in several areas.

The Utility of the Future (UOTF) Today Program recognizes progress utilities make in adopting the innovative UOTF business model. In partnership with other water organizations* and with input from EPA, the UOTF Today Program recognized an additional 25 utilities for its three-year honor, with five others recognized for achievement in new areas - making the total number of utilities awarded UOTF Today recognition 81. *NACWA thanks the Water Environment Federation (WEF), the Water Environment & Reuse Foundation (WE&RF) and WateReuse for their significant collaboration with this recognition program.

The Excellence in Management Recognition Program recognizes sustainable, successful agencies that exemplify attributes of an effectively-managed utility, as outlined in the resource, Ten Attributes of Effectively Managed Water Sector Utilities. Six member agencies were honored for their extraordinary and innovative public clean water utility management.

ADVANCING OUR ADVOCACY Impact Through Partnerships OUR IMPACT

NACWA’s Advocacy Program made great strides in 2017—a transition year with a new Presidential Administration and Congress—building upon its impact and effectiveness nationally, while expanding its services and resources for member agencies locally.

Crucial partnerships, both established and new, along with sound policy positions ensure a solid, unified, and increasingly influential advocacy voice for the Association. This voice, and this work, continues to “lift all boats,” generating countless invaluable benefits for the water sector as a whole, members and nonmembers alike.

OUR 2017 ADVOCACY HIGHLIGHTS

Provided new Presidential Administration and Congress with robust transition document and recommendations for advancing municipal clean water priorities, many of which are already being implemented.

Advocated for EPA to ensure that Phase II Remand Rule for municipal stormwater discharges provided flexibility for clean water agencies and did not make substantive changes to the federal MS4 program.

By spearheading water sector partnerships, secured full funding for the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) in Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 EPA budget, and increased CWSRF funding in the President’s proposed FY 2018 budget—despite large proposed cuts to the rest of EPA.

Helped DC’s wipes labeling bill to become the first wipes law in the country requiring wipes labeled “Flushable” to be safe for sewer systems, and non-flushable wipes to be labeled “Do not flush.”

Spearheaded first-ever sector-wide Water Week event, with National Water Policy Fly-In, bringing hundreds of clean water professionals from around the country to Washington, DC for a Rally for Water on Capitol Hill grounds, and more than 1,000 combined congressional office visits.

Advanced passage of Senate’s integrated planning legislation with a large bipartisan majority, and secured introduction of similar legislation in the House.

Developed comprehensive list of regulatory improvement ideas for EPA that is already influencing the new Administration’s work on water issues related to crucial clean water priorities.

After years of advocacy, secured policy letter from EPA that resources recovered from the wastewater treatment process - like struvite - need not be regulated as biosolids under certain conditions, providing new incentives for utilities to pursue innovative technologies.

Secured significant improvements in EPA’s final pretreatment standards for dental offices, reducing the burden that otherwise would have been placed on POTWs.

Collaborated with wastewater associations around the world to develop a draft flushability standard for wipes that aids states and municipalities pass legislation setting proper standards.

Litigated multiple clean water cases nationwide, providing national perspective on crucial issues including nutrients, variances, Total Maximum Daily Loads and regulatory overreach.

Led collaborative water sector effort to release the report, Navigating Legal Pathways to Rate-Funded Customer Assistance Programs: A Guide for Water and Wastewater Utilities, exploring state-level barriers and opportunities to using ratepayer revenue for community assistance programs.

Published high-quality legal resources to aid clean water agencies, including an updated Consent Decree Handbook to guide enforcement negotiations and a white paper on legal considerations for stormwater fees.

Published white paper, Envisioning the Digital Utility of the Future, outlining how clean water agencies can use advanced data and analytics to protect water quality more effectively and efficiently, advancing key utility of the future concepts.
