Rising insurance costs are a growing challenge, especially for water utilities operating in wildfire-prone areas of California. In just two years, insurance expenses have surged by 20%, impacting the affordability of water for our communities.
The California Water Association (CWA) is actively addressing this issue. We’re thrilled to sponsor new legislation aimed at expanding insurance options for water utilities. This initiative will not only make insurance more accessible but also help in curbing the rising costs, directly benefiting our customers.
By broadening the insurance market pool, we’re paving the way for water utilities to secure savings — ensuring that water remains affordable for all Californians.
Water is a human right, so please join us in supporting this vital bill so everyone has access to clean, safe, reliable, and affordable drinking water.
