Mutual Aid

Mutual Aid Agreement

PLEASE NOTE: This is the Mutual Aid Agreement (MAA) aimed at facilitating rapid emergency response amongst IDWARN member utilities. Signing the MAA is NOT mandatory for basic IDWARN registration. However members are encouraged to sign and submit the agreement as soon as possible.

The MAA has been carefully crafted by legal experts working with utilities to promote "utilities helping utilities" in time of emergency. Your support is appreciated. The IDWARN Steering Committee will review all suggestions for future improvements, including comments forwarded from member utilities’ attorneys, and may revise the MAA as needed, on a yearly basis.

Having a signed MAA already on file prior to an emergency can greatly facilitate planning and prioritizing by agencies responding to your requests for help in time of need.

Please attach a copy of your registration form (or the email confirmation notice) when you submit the signed MAA to:
