Resources to Promote RRAs and ERPs for CWS that Serve Less than 3,301, non-CWS, and Wastewater Systems

CWSs that serve less than 3,301 people, non-CWSs, and wastewater systems are not required to certify completion of a RRA or ERP to EPA. However, natural disasters and malevolent acts also occur at these facilities, therefore EPA encourages these systems to plan for disasters that could disrupt system operations by conducting RRAs and developing ERPs.

See EPA’s Primer explaining what RRAs and ERPs are and why they are important: RRA and ERP Primer for Very Small Drinking Water and Wastewater Systems
