Over the last decade, water utility managers have been increasingly challenged by an array
of competing demands that strain available financial resources. In this context, the mandate
for more effective protection of drinking water infrastructure simultaneously is an
opportunity to enhance customer service and another claim on limited resources.
Accordingly, utility managers must prioritize potential security investments carefully and
ensure that selected security improvements are delivered cost-effectively. This paper
reviews techniques for prioritizing security investments in recognition of the impossibility
of absolute protection, and in the context of other claims on limited resources. It identifies
typical high-priority security investments and techniques for their cost-effective delivery
and financing. Includes table, figure, appendices.
