Sustainable Water Services: A Procedural Guide is the result of the
Sustainable Water industry Asset Resource Decisions (SWARD)
project, undertaken by a consortium of UK academics in
collaboration with water service providers in Scotland, England and
Romania. It has been developed to act as a practical tool to assist
with the explicit inclusion of ?sustainability? in the
decision-making processes of those responsible for providing water
services. The book contains a framework that comprises a set of
decision support processes that can be used by water service
providers to explicitly incorporate sustainability considerations
into their decision-making procedures, through the use of
sustainability principles, criteria, indicators and processes.
These principles and criteria can be applied at an overall
corporate strategic level, for example in the service provider?s
mission statement, or at an application level, where these
strategic principles are being applied to a particular decision.
Sustainable Water Services is designed to inform and to provide
support for strategic activity, both as a resource containing
information about sustainability, and by employing feedback from
application to inform the strategic processes of the water service
provider. Presents an inclusive and generic set of sustainability
criteria for use in water industry decision making processes;
Discusses the legislative drivers for sustainable decision making
for the UK water industry; Presents clear case study examples of
the sustainability framework in action; Discusses the use and
applicability of a wide range of tools and techniques for
undertaking environmental, economic and social analyses, e.g. life
cycle assessment, multi-criteria analysis.
