As costs and the administrative burden of managing a wastewater utility continue to escalate, regional sewer authorities are on the rise. Regional authorities allow municipalities to take advantage of economies of scale.

According to the North Carolina General Statute 162A, Article I, also known as the "NC Water and Sewer Authorities Act," any two (2) or more political subdivisions may organize an Authority. In the case of the Yadkin Valley Sewer Authority, the municipalities involved are the towns are Elkin (Surry County), Jonesville (Yadkin County) and Ronda (Wilkes County). See map below:
