Environmental Steward

We are committed to leading our region in meeting tough new standards to improve the health of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. To this end, ASA seeks to be a financial steward for our ratepayers, as well as an environmental steward in our everyday work. This is accomplished through a focus on a triple bottom line – balancing financial, social and environmental needs. In order to incorporate this approach, a sustainability model was created to ensure that our core values are integrated within our planning efforts.

This model takes into account those triple bottom line impacts across the ASA’s five key business strategies: People, Environmental Leadership, Efficiency, Community Awareness, and Fiscal Responsibility.
