Overview

Mission

The mission of the pawarn network is to support and promote statewide emergency preparedness, disaster response and mutual aid assistance for public and private water and wastewater utilities for natural and human caused events in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

What it reported doing in 2024

Pawarn (Pennsylvania water/wastewater agency response network) is the water sector's emergency response mutual aid network. Pawarn coordinates the movement of emergency resources between a requesting utility (in a crisis situation) and responding utilities that have volunteered to provide the needed resources.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 97% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
