The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will host AWIA Office Hours to answer questions that small-sized (serving a population of 3,301 to 49,999 people) community water systems (CWSs) may have on completing and certifying their AWIA Emergency Response Plan (ERP) by the upcoming December 31, 2021 deadline. While Section 2013 of AWIA does not require the use of any standards, methods, or tools, EPA Office Hours will focus on the resource that EPA developed to aid small-sized CWSs in complying with AWIA ERP requirements, the ERP Template and Instructions for Drinking Water Utilities.
Office hours will be held in 45-minute sessions from December 1-30, 2021. Everything discussed during office hours will remain confidential.
AWIA Background: AWIA Section 2013 requires community (drinking) water systems serving more than 3,300 people to develop or update Risk and Resilience Assessments (RRAs) and ERPs. AWIA, promulgated on October 23, 2018, specifies the components that the RRAs and ERPs must address and establishes deadlines by which water systems must certify to EPA completion of the RRA and ERP. Please visit EPA’s AWIA website for more information: epa.gov/waterresilience/awia-section-2013
