Management
The WSSC is overseen by six commissioners, three from Montgomery County and three from Prince George's County. These commissioners are appointed by their respective county executives with the approval of the county councils. The day-to-day operations are the responsibility of a general manager, who supervises a staff of over 1,500. The Commission's budget for Fiscal Year 2008 (which ended June 30, 2008) was $807.5 million. The agency headquarters offices are located in Laurel, Maryland.
