BACKGROUND AND HIGHLIGHTS
During the first six months of 1982, the Office of Drinking Water of the
environmental Protection Agency carried out a survey (OHS No. 2000—0389) of the
financial and operating characteristics of community water systems. The survey
was a follow—up to a similar survey conducted in 1976 (covering 1975 data) and had
the following objectives:
• Provide updated description of wat-er utility industry
• Provide improved (more current and, therefore, more exact) basis
for assessing impacts of regulations
• Document chan’jes and identify trends in industry since 1975 (to be
used for new industry baseline projections)
• Improve information gained in 1976 survey
• Provide general statistics and general reference data for use by
interested public.
A random sample stratified on the basis of the system size and ownership was
selected. Twelve size categories based on population served were used. The
following four ownerships were chosen as the basis of stratification:
• Public : owned by state, local, or federal government
• Private : owned by homeowners associations, investors, or a parent
company
• Ancillary : private systems whose primary business is other than
the purveyance of water (the water system exists only as necessary
support to the primary business)
• Native American : systems serving Native American populations
I —
-------
The stratified random samples were selected from the Federal Reporting Data
Systems (FRDS). Alternate systems were chosen to accommodate the phenomenon of
refusals, ineligible systems, or systems which cou]d not be reached. Examples of
ineligible systems are systems with a service population of less than 25 and
active connections less than 15, systems which had merged with other systems and
were no longer independent entities, and systems which did not provide drinking
water. In the smallest size categories, despite attempts to reach over 150 sys—
teins in each cell, the goal of 50 systems was not reached. In some of the larger
size cells there are not 50 systems in the universe. The final sample is shown
below:

This section shows selected highlighl:s of the major findings of the analysis
of the survey data. These data are generally shown as means. The supporting
sections oF this document contain more detail on these items and related issues.
Most of the data items are reported along ownership variables and then
generalized to the total population of water systems. All financial characteris-
tics, except rate struct:.ure, are reported for public and private systems only.
?Jhenever data for ancillary systems is available, it is reported separatel.y; it is
never included within the private system category. Certain operating and finan-
cial characteristics are also reported according to water source types. Unless
specifically defined otherwise in each table, these water source types are defined
as follows:
• Predominantly Surface Water : More than fifty percent of a system’s
water production comes from surface water sources.
• Predominantly Ground Water : More than fifty percent oF a system’s water
production comes from ground water sources.
• Other : More than fifty percent of a system’s water production comes
from purchased water, or no water source makes Ut) more than fifty
percent of a system’s water production.
A great deal of effort was devoted to “cleaning” the data. Over twenty corn-
puterized checks for arithmetic errors were carried out and extreme values on each
item were investigated. As a result, many arithmetic errors were corrected and
numerous respondents were called back for clarification. Even with these efforts,
the standard deviations on many of the items examined are large relative to the
mean. This is due to the valid characteristics of the underlying population. The
attempt to show in the body of this report medians, standard deviations, and the
number of observations on most items is an acknowledgement of this characteristic
and serves to provide the reader with more useful results.

METHODOLOGY
The primary objective of the survey was to provide an updated description of
the water utility industry. To accomplish this, the study comprised four major
phases:
• Design of survey form
• Sample selection
• Conduct of the survey
o Data analysis
Each of these is discussed in the following sections.
VII I—I
-------
DESIGN OF SURVEY FOR 1
The survey questionnaire was based on the 1915 questionnaire with specific
improvements developed on the basis of the earlier experience and on sugyastiomis
from EPA ’s Office of Drinking Water. The major change was to include a third
ownership Lype (ancillary) for the financial inCormation. This was prompted by
the recognition thai systems such as Lhese are extremely important in the smallest
size categories (accounting for 54.8 petcent and 31.4 percent, respeclively, in
the two smallest size cateyories) and that the financiaL information concerning
water operations available to them is very limited. Thus survey forms with finan—
cial questions tailored to the ancillary, public and privately owned systems was
developed. Operating questions were the same for all systems.
A a result three forms were used.
• Public
• Private
• Ancillary
Each is included in this appendix.
Other changes to the questionnaire included the rewording of some questions,
deletion of some questions, and the inclusion of new areas of information (e.g.,
operators, rates).
Questionnaires were then reviewed by individuals within EPA and various trade
organizations (American Water Works Association, National Association of Water
Companies, Conference of State Sanitary Engineers, Manufactured Housing Associa-
tion). A pre—test. of the survey with nine water systems was also conducted.
Numerous changes were made based on comments received and the pretest.
The form and supporting justification were then submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (0MB). 0MB approval COMB No. 2000—0389) was received in
December 1981.

-------
SAMPLE SELECTION
The population from which the survey sampLe was drawn is the Federal. Report-
ing Data System (FRDS) inventory of community water systems, a listing of systems
and some simple identifying characteristics. This inventory is aggregated annu-
ally from information submitted by the states and covers approximately 59,000
systems. it is the only source of statistics on the number arid size distributions
of community water systems operating nationwide and is considered by the Oifice of
Drinking Water to be comprehensive.
The sample consisted of 27 separate analytical cells distinguished first by
size of customer base and then by ownership type. There were 12 size categories
in all ranging from 25—100 to over 1 million people served. The larger size cate—
gories were segmented into two ownership types: public and private. The smaller
size categories are segmented into three ownership types: public, private, and
ancillary private. The ancillary ownership type was used in these sizes because
of the high proportion of smaller water systems in which water service is not the
primary business of the entity (such as mobile home parks or hospitals) and
because it is not possible to compare their financial characteristics with systems
whose primary business is water service. Finally, a 27th cell consisting of
Native American systems was selected.
Each of the characteristics used to distinguish the 26 individual cells (ex-
cluding the Native American cell) was necessary for accurate representation of the
sample along the dimensions most critical to regulatory impact analysis. Develop-
ment of data valid by size of water systems allows examination of the differential
impact of regulations on an industry in which physical plant, management skills,
and technical skills vary greatly with the size of the utility. The ownership
characteristics directly affect the financial structure of the utility and thus
the way in which regulatory initiatives affecting capital expenditures or operat-
ing expenses impact a water utility and are passed on to customers or borne by the
utility.
Within each of the 26 size/ownership groupings, a random sample of either 50
systems (plus alternates), or the total population if less than 50, was drawn.
For the Native American cell, a random sample of 50 systems (plus a].ternates) was
chosen from several EPA regions. The standard cell size of 50 was selected
V I I I—i
-------
following consultation with professional survey statisticians as an appropriate
balance between a larger size to achieve greater statistical validity and a
smaller size to minimize the cost of conducting the survey.
The goal of 50 systems or the entire population was reached in all hut the
smallest size category and some of the largest size categories. Despite repeated
efforts to reach the smallest size systems and the use of over 100 alternates in
each of these cells, only 35 public and 34 privaiely—owned systems are included in
the sample. The entire population could nQt be reached in the largest size cate-
gories generally due to such problems as refusals or unwillingness by a parent
company to complete surveys for each subsidiary. The resulting sample sizes and
the corresponding number of systems listed in the FRDS inventory are shown below.

CONDUCT OF TilE SURVEY
The administration of the questionnaire actually occurred in three steps:
• tnitial phone contacts
• Mail—out of survey
• Phone interviews
The systems were initially contacted by phone, at which time the survey was
described, basic information concerning system size and ownership was confirmed,
the system’s agreement to participate was obtained, and a time for a call—back to
obtain the information was agreed upon. The appropriate survey was then mailed to
the respondent. Finally, at the agreed upon time the respondent was te]ephoned
and the questionnaire information was filled out by trained interviewers. In
practice, successful contact with the respondent and completion of the survey
generally required several telephone calls by the interviewer. Many of the ancil-
lary and small private systems could only be reached on weekends or on specific
days in the week.
The use of telephone interviews both improved the quality of information
(questions could be clarified) and improved the response rate (refusals either
before or after receipt of the form totalled 15 percent).
Key responses were then checked for reasonableness. Where necessary, respon—
dents were called back to clarify or correct responses. Such call—backs were
required for over half of the respondents.
V I I I—
-------
DATA ANALYSIS
Further data clean—up served as the first step in the analysis of results.
Computerized checks on key items (e.g., the sum of revenue, expense, asset and
liability figures, and reported deliveries less than reported production) led to
further call—backs and the modification of selected answers. Table formats which
cover all questions asked on the survey were then developed, reviewed, and
finalized.
The calculation of the ratios and means, medians, and standard de.viations was
then carried out. High and low extreme values on each data item were investigated
and corrected. Additionally, these investigations led to broader exclusions for
certain items such as the exclusion of wholesalers, schools and prisons from the
calculation of average number of total connections. Where these broader exclu-
sions are made, they are referenced in the footnotes of the tables.
Bven with these measures, the data show large standard deviations due to
ialid characteristics of the underlying population. The presentation of standard
deviations and medians rather than just. means on most items is an acknowledgement
of this characteristic and serves to provide the reader with more useful results.
In most cases, the data are reported for each size/ownership cell and then
generalized to a total for each size category. Size category totals are
calculated by weighting the results for each size/ownership cell according to its
underlying frequency in the population universe of that size category. These
underlying frequencies are reported in the Sample Selection section. The actual
weights used to calculate size category totals are as follows:

In a selected number of tables, particularly those relating to operating
characteristics, the data is also reported according to size and water source
type. The following three water source categories are commonly used for analysis:
predominantly surface water, predominantly ground water, and other (includes pre—
dominantly purchased or mixed). Size category totals are calculated in these
tables by weighling the results for each size/water source cell according to its
underlying frequency in the population. Because there is no other valid source
for this information (FRDS uses different water source definitions) the underlying
frequencies are assumed to be the same as those found in the survey sample. The
weights used are as follows:

UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20460
‘ L O’
OF IC! OF
Dear Participant,
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is asking your help in
conducting a nationwide survey of the water utility industry to get the
most current information on operating and financial characteristics.
Because you supply water to twenty-five or more people, you are considered
a public water system under the Safe Drinking Water Act. That’s why we
are writing to you.
To continue protecting the public health, we at EPA need to take into
account the special needs of operations that are not traditiona water
plants. We would like you to participate in this survey by answering the
enclosed questionnaire during a telephone interview. Your response is
very inportant to us. We conauct these surveys only infrequently and
then contact less than two percent of all systems, so you can see that
you contribution will play a significant role.
We have worked with representatives of the American Water Works Association,
the Iational Association of Water Companies, the National Manufactured.
Housing Federation and other organizations, utilities and state health
cepartrnents to develop and review the questionnaire. Their endorsements
are included with this package. In addition, we have field tested it to
identify and eliminate problem areas, and are using a telephone interview
technique so that you can ask questions if you are not sure of the type
of information we are collecting.
EPA has contracted with an independent consulting and research firm,
Temple, Barker and Sloane, Inc. (IBS), to administer this survey to a
representative samole of water utility systems of all sizes, both public
and private. Please look at the enclosed questionnaire so that you will
be familiar with the requested information. It is not necessary to return
the foriis. lBS will take your answers during the telephone interview,
and I recornri nd that you jot down any information that you may not be
aole to provide readily during the telephone call. lBS will contact you
within the next two weeks to conduct the interview.
I appreciate your cooperation in this survey which will help us to
uncerstand the industry more completely.
Si rcerely,
Victor 3. kimm

Dear Water Utility Manager,
The Environmental Protection Agency is conducting a survey
and the questionnaire you are receiving herewith is necessary for
informational data on the water utility industry. The Agency has
requested our endorsement of this survey and by this letter we
are urging you to cooperate.
Investor—owned water utilities are an integral part of the
water su tly industry in this country and no survey would be
com lete without inclusion of data from this segment of the
industry. This information will be helpful in enhancing the
regulatory process.
Data on the very small systems, the vast majority of which
are privately owned, is very scarce so it is particularly
lmportant that these uz lities cooperate in tnis enaeavor. Witn
this information it will be considerably easier to work with
these systems in helping them overcome any problems they are
experiencing with providing safe and adequate water.
Please complete the questionnaire with as much detail as
possible in order to make this a successful survey of the water
supply industry. Thank you.
Sincerely,
C. Robert Morris
Associate Executive Director
