Municipal officials are faced with increasingly complex and costly drinking water and wastewater regulations. The stringent standards of the federal Safe Water Drinking Act and the Clean Water Act make it difficult for communities to comply with expensive testing and treatment mandates that often require major capital investment. According to the EPA, improvements to the nation's water and wastewater infrastructures will cost about $260 billion over the next 20 years. However, there are options available to municipalities faced with shrinking budgets and aging infrastructures. United Water can provide flexible solutions to these challenges through public-private partnerships and comprehensive asset management contracts. These agreements enable municipalities to outsource the management and operation of their water or wastewater systems. Communities can elect to retain ownership of their assets while gaining cost-effective professional management for their systems. With 128 years of water management expertise, United Water has the financial resources and technical know-how to help clients meet current and future water system challenges. The company offers customized, cost-effective solutions to communities of all sizes. This full spectrum of services includes public-private partnerships, contract operations, customer service, billing and collections, long-term leases, asset transfer, design and construction, ownership, and private financing. Some of the company's larger public-private partnerships operate in Hoboken, NJ; Jersey City, NJ; Indianapolis, IN; and Houston, TX.
