A vulnerability analysis can help water utilities prepare for emergencies. A vulnerability analysis identifies general and specific areas of the system, what can go wrong, what should be done when something goes wrong, and in what order things should be done (establishing priorities). By incorporating the vulnerability analysis into capital improvements plans, the utility may avoid major problems altogether.
