Water systems are ranked on three areas: technical capacity, which includes water quality; managerial capacity, which reviews how the system is operated; and financial capacity, which includes clear plans for what happens when customers fail to pay their bills and their service is cut off.
Ocean Springs scored a perfect 5 points in each area.
