Eighty-five percent serve communities with less than 10,000 people and nearly half have fewer than 1,000 residents. Nearly one quarter of all Americans live in rural areas, approximately the same percentage as live in central cities.

Nearly one in four households in the United States depends on an individual septic system (also referred to as an onsite system) or small community cluster system to treat wastewater. The EPA Decentralized Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Partnership has developed a series of four papers highlighting how decentralized wastewater treatment can be: a sensible solution; cost‐effective and economical; green and sustainable; and protective of the environment, public health, and water quality.

General information

NATaT seeks flexible and alternative approaches to federal policies to ensure that small communities can meet federal requirements. As part of these efforts, NATaT advocates for fair share funding, technical assistance, and other affirmative steps to address the inherent disadvantages that small governments face in our present intergovernmental system. Typical of these efforts was NATaT’s key role in the passage of regulatory reforms by Congress aimed at reducing the burden of regulations on small local governments. NATaT has also successfully sought Congressional appropriations for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency specifically for small community outreach.
