                          dean Watersheds Needs Survey 2004
 The Clean Watersheds Needs
 Survey (CWNS) is a comprehensive
 assessment of needs1 to meet the water
 quality and water-related public health
 goals of the Clean Water Act (CWA).
 States and the U.S. Environmental
 Protection Agency (EPA) conduct the
 CWNS every four years under CWA
 Sections 205(a) and 516 (b)(l).

 Hawaii reported needs totaling $2.1
 billion in 2004. This is a seven percent
 increase from the $1.9 billion in needs
 reported in 2000.

 1 Costs in the CWNS are generally eligible for funding under the Clean Water Act State Revolving Fund (CWSRF). All needs are capital
 needs except stormwater management needs, which include program development costs. The survey is a "snapshot" of data and needs;
 needs are as of January 1, 2004, and all costs are in January 2004 dollars.

                          dean Watersheds Needs Survey 2004
The enactment of the Clean Water Act (CWA) in 1972 resulted in dramatic improvements in the:
   •  Number of wastewater treatment plants.
   •  Percentage of the population served by wastewater treatment plants.
   •  Level of effluent treatment from wastewater treatment plants.

In 2004, 35% of Hawaii residents received centralized wastewater treatment services at the secondary, greater
than secondary, or no discharge treatment level, compared to 6% in 1972.

a Number of facilities and population served if all needs documented in the CWNS 2004 are met.
b The remaining population is largely served by home and cluster sewage treatment systems.
Includes facilities granted section 301(h) waivers from secondary treatment for discharges to marine waters.
(Number of facilities from Tables C-7 and C-8 of the CWNS 2004 Report to Congress)
    What are treatment levels?
    •   Less than secondary treatment removes solids by filtration, sedimentation, and chemical coagulation.
    •   Secondary treatment removes most of the organic matter in wastewater using biological processes.
    •   Greater than secondary treatment removes additional organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, or toxics.
    •   No discharge facilities include facilities that reuse wastewater, discharge to an underground aquifer, or
       dispose of wastewater via methods such as irrigation or evaporation.
    The CWA goals of fishable, swimmable and drinkable waters require secondary or greater treatment.
 Small communities often need additional assistance to meet CWA requirements, because they often lack
 adequate financing, training, and economies of scale to efficiently manage and maintain wastewater treatment
 systems.

 In Hawaii, small community wastewater
 facilities serve 6% of the population and
 comprise 2% of total wastewater treatment
 and collection needs.  EPA small community
