Oklahoma Water Resources Board
Executive Summary
In September of 1999, the OWRB commenced development of our first strategic planning document, a process initiated through numerous meetings involving more than two dozen members of our management team. Every year since, this core group has convened to conduct in-depth discussions of the constantly changing factors that impact our statutorily mandated projects and programs.
The focus of these meetings, as well as each successive strategic plan, is to build upon past successes and identify new initiatives that can assist the agency in meeting future challenges and opportunities. We spend a considerable amount of time assessing various environmental factors – such as the challenging economy, technological trends, evolving demographics, and new statutes – that impact the quality and effectiveness of our service to Oklahomans. The result is an annually updated five-year plan detailing the agency’s priorities and direction.
Our mission statement describes the Water Board’s many roles in the environmental arena – managing, protecting, and improving our water resources. Our staff’s renowned competence and professionalism is a key factor in providing this service to Oklahomans.
Our vision, values and behaviors are our collective sentiments and beliefs, and they represent the cornerstone principles for what our agency aspires to be – Oklahoma’s water agency.
In addition to goals that provide specific direction, agency-wide key performance measures are a core component of our management philosophy in order to assure the optimum use of management energy and, just as important, to gage success and monitor our performance. Each year, management and staff are committed to delivering improved services regardless of budgetary factors.
Agency-wide action plans, such as completion and implementation of the ongoing Oklahoma Comprehensive Water Plan, speak for themselves. They include specific tasks and timelines for completing those particular water-related projects that have the greatest potential positive impact upon the lives of Oklahomans.
Our success in implementing this strategic plan can only be determined in the coming years. Regardless, I believe the process for developing this plan is valuable in itself because it provides a mechanism for OWRB staff to liberally assess how well the agency serves the citizens of Oklahoma. This annual process affirms the intelligence, concern, and commitment my colleagues at the OWRB bring to their jobs. All Oklahomans are extremely fortunate to have such dedicated professionals working on our behalf.
Humbly,
J. D. Strong
