The United States and its public and private institutions have evolved dramatically since 2002, when the National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) published, "Protecting Water Infrastructure Assets... Legal Issues in a Time of Crisis Checklist" (Checklist). The Checklist was published in the wake of September 11, 2001, and the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Since then, terrorist attacks have continued around the world, adding impetus for the prompt establishment of the Department of Homeland Security and passage of numerous federal security statutes and the promulgation of implementing regulations which touch every aspect of American life. As a result, NACWA has partnered with the American Public Works Association (APWA), the Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies (AMWA), and the Water Environment Federation (WEF) to expand, revise, and update the issues covered in the Checklist as a result of the unprecedented legal, technical, and policy changes in protecting the nation's critical water sector infrastructure over the last five years.
