Water Sector Coordinating Council Strategic Roadmap
Abstract
Of all the critical infrastructures, the security of the drinking water and wastewater industries (water sector) have the most immediate and pervasive impact upon the public's health and welfare. Accordingly, an unprecedented level of industry government cooperation is necessary to effectively plan, prepare, respond, and recover from terrorist attacks and natural disasters. While industry representatives have expended considerable effort to participate in the full range of infrastructure protection activities associated with mitigating risk in the Nation's water sector--and achieved substantial progress in doing so--there is a sense that progress may be too slow and the response may be incomplete. A comprehensive strategy that streamlines and drives the efforts of industry and government is needed to prepare for the needs of tomorrow.
