What We're Doing#
Global Reporting Initiative#
We report our progress and challenges in a sustainability report that has granted us registration with the Global Reporting Initiative. Fort Collins Utilities is the first municipal utility in the United States to accomplish this achievement.
- 2011 Sustainability Report (PDF 11.3MB)
- Previous Years' Reports
We will be moving to a biennial reporting format starting with the 2012 and 2013 reporting years. We remain committed to disclosing our impacts and sustainability performance to our customers and stakeholders.
Our commitment to building a sustainable organization focuses on the importance of addressing short- and medium-term strategic issues ahead:
- Secure water supplies
- Maintain water quality
- Re-purpose our stormwater master plan to enhance safety of people and property; protect and restore watersheds and natural waterways; reduce flood damage and protect natural and beneficial functions of riparian zones and wildlife habitats
- Modernize electric distribution system
- Manage infrastructure assets in the immediate future and coming decades
- Manage transfer of knowledge and ensure business continuity as our workforce continues to retire
- Maintain financial stability
- Respond to increased regulatory requirements
At the core of each issue is our customer service mission to provide high-quality, reliable electric and water services at acceptable rates.
