United States WATER AND WASTE MANAGEMENT Companies
Water Supply, Sewerage, Waste Management and Remediation companies in United States. Most water utilities are not companies you buy — they are concessions you are granted. Water supply, wastewater treatment, waste collection and recycling, and environmental remediation operators typically run under a municipal concession or franchise agreement tied to a specific service area, not open-market ownership. Verifying one means confirming the registered entity and the geographic rights it actually holds — two facts that do not always match the name on the door.

Analysis
What this data actually tells you
Water supply and sewerage in the United States is overwhelmingly delivered through municipally-owned and operated utilities rather than a nationalized system — EPA figures cite over 148,000 total public water systems, of which roughly 44,000-50,000 are community water systems (the exact count varies by dataset/definition across EPA’s own materials), covering roughly 99% of the population served by such systems. EPA sets standards under the Safe Drinking Water Act and Clean Water Act, but day-to-day permitting and oversight is delegated to state "primacy" agencies, with actual ownership fragmented across thousands of local governments plus some investor-owned utilities.
Hazardous waste management runs through a separate federal permitting track: 1,740 permitted hazardous waste facilities operate nationally under RCRA (EPA, 2025). Counterparties verify a specific water utility’s actual current ownership and regulatory standing at the local/state level, and a specific waste-handling counterparty’s actual RCRA permit status, rather than assume either sub-sector is centrally administered.
Who uses United States water supply, sewerage, waste management and remediation ownership data
The three checks this sector's data is most often run for.
Municipally-Owned Utility Verification
Most US drinking-water and sewerage utilities are municipally owned/operated rather than nationalized, with EPA setting standards under the Safe Drinking Water Act/Clean Water Act while day-to-day permitting is delegated to state "primacy" agencies; counterparties verify a specific water utility’s actual current ownership and regulatory standing at the local/state level.
RCRA Hazardous-Waste Facility Verification
1,740 permitted hazardous waste facilities operate nationally under RCRA (EPA, 2025); counterparties verify a specific waste-handling counterparty’s actual current RCRA permit status directly given the fragmented, thousands-of-local-governments ownership structure of this sector.
