Asset Management : A Handbook for Small Water Systems: One of the Simple Tools for Effective Performance (STEP) Series Guides

This guide is designed for owners & operators of small community water systems (CWSs). CWSs include all systems (both publicly & privately owned) with at least 25 year-round residential customers or 15 year-round service connections. Typical systems that may find this guide useful include: small towns; rural water districts; & tribal systems. This guide presents basic concepts of asset management & provides the tools to develop an asset management plan. Very small CWSs may have some difficulty in completing some of the worksheets included in this booklet, while medium CWSs may find the worksheets too simple for their needs. Due to each system's particular circumstances, the time & effort needed to develop the plan will vary.
