About the company
Alameda County Water District (doing business as Acwd), a local government entity headquartered in Fremont, California, operates as a federal grant recipient focused on water infrastructure modernization and emergency response projects. The district receives federal funding as both a prime grant recipient and a sub-recipient under disaster-relief and water-resource programs; it does not hold federal contract vehicles or serve as a federal contractor.
Acwd's federal award footprint centers on two capability areas: advanced metering infrastructure deployment and emergency water-system repairs. As a prime recipient, Acwd completed a $50 thousand project grant from the Bureau of Reclamation (awarded February 2022, completing June 2024) to upgrade 77,681 manual-read water meters to ultrasonic advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) compatible equipment serving landscape, commercial, and residential customers, paired with an online water-use portal offering leak detection, abnormality alerts, and real-time consumption data. The project targeted 1,913 acre-feet in annual water savings and increased instream flows to Alameda Creek. As a sub-recipient under the Office of Emergency Services, Acwd has received four disaster-relief sub-awards since September 2024, including temporary repairs to Rubber Dam 3 (75% cost share), the Whitfield Booster Station Zone 2, and the Alvarado Niles Pipeline Seismic Improvement Project (DR4569-AP00282).
Customer concentration reflects mixed federal sourcing. The Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance Awards account for four sub-awards (50% of total awards); the Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation accounts for two awards; and the Environmental Protection Agency Research Triangle Park Procurement Operations Division and the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 1 each account for one award. The combined potential value across all awards stands at $50 thousand, though obligated dollars across the portfolio reach $58 million, indicating that the potential-value figures understate actual federal spending through these awards. Activity is sparse and episodic — two awards in 2009, one in 2017, one in 2022, two in 2024, and two in 2025 — with no established contract vehicles or standing IDIQs in the source record.
