Risk and resilience refers to the preparation that utilities must undergo to avoid disruptions in water quality and delivery due to emergencies such as natural disasters, accidents, or intentional acts. The 2018 Act places a greater emphasis on cybersecurity, as it relates to municipal water systems. Regardless of size or location, utilities should prepare for emergencies before they occur.
