Water Resource Protection | SDWA Regulations: Overview & Implementation
Capacity Development
Implementation of the 1996 SDWA Capacity Development Rule is well underway. The rule requires states to develop programs to ensure water systems have the technical, managerial, and financial capacity to provide safe drinking water. NEIWPCC assists states as they continue to implement their strategies for new and existing systems. Through NEIWPCC meetings and conference calls, states discuss general programmatic issues as well as more specific topics such as technical assistance approaches, self-assessment materials, financial assessment, and rule reporting requirements.
