The risk-sharing pools of the JPIA are a cost-effective form of risk management available only to public entities, allowing them to bypass the high cost of commercial insurance. The coverages provided by this risk-sharing arrangement are unique to water agencies. The water agencies themselves - their directors and managers - have selected and refined these coverages. Not all water agencies are accepted into the JPIA. Prospective members must demonstrate a commitment to effective risk management programs.
