Water 2050: A vision for one water governance

Central Iowa Water Works, established last year, demonstrates the potential of one water governance — an approach that unites regional utilities toward common goals of sustainability, water quality, and conservation for the benefit of consumers and supply.

The water authority is responsible for water system planning, drinking water treatment and wholesale delivery of drinking water to about 600,000 people in central Iowa. Over four years, 12 utilities and rural water agencies decided to come together to streamline management of source water supply, long-term capacity and resilience.
