| Abstract | Operating a wastewater facility can have significant economic impact on a municipality, particularly in smaller communities. In recent years, operating expenses have escalated to a point where many communities do not believe they can afford to operate their existing facilities. Rather than cut back on O&M and risk reducing the life of the plant or facing an enforcement action, communities should evaluate approaches to reducing costs and increasing productivity. |
