Asset Management and Finance Committee

<h2>GOAL: Effective and Financially Sustainable Systems</h2>
Communities maintain and improve drinking water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure systems to 
deliver quality water services that meet community needs. Operating budgets and capital investment are 
adequate and affordable, resulting in systems that operate efficiently and in a state of good repair.
<h3>1.1 Maintaining Systems</h3>
Utilities and departments maintain drinking water, wastewater and stormwater pipes and other water 
infrastructure assets to efficiently and effectively reduce leakage, emergency repairs and other impacts.
<h3>1.2 Wise Management and Spending</h3>
State requirements, metrics and incentives along with utility policies ensure that utilities and departments implement water infrastructure asset management programs fully, with sufficient operating budgets and capital investments to deliver required and desired levels of service while minimizing life-cycle costs.
<h3>1.3 Adequate and Fair Revenue</h3>
Utilities and local governments raise the funds required to make appropriate capital investments and 
ensure proper operation and maintenance in a cost-effective, equitable manner that treats ratepayers 
fairly. Programs are authorized and established to ensure affordability. Stormwater utilities and 
stormwater fees are authorized statewide and widely implemented.
<h3>1.4 Robust Government Funding Initiatives</h3>
Funding for existing federal water infrastructure financing program is maintained or increased. New state 
funding for water infrastructure programs advance Jersey Water Works’ goals.
