Correctionville City Of Inc.

Correctionville City Of Inc., a municipal government entity headquartered in Correctionville, Iowa, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient from the Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service and acts as a sub-recipient on disaster-recovery and infrastructure grants flowing from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and state pass-through entities. The city operates entirely in the federal grant space — no contract prime or sub-contract work — and holds no SBA small-business certifications.

Correctionville's federal footprint centers on rural water infrastructure and disaster recovery. As a prime grant recipient, the city received $651,000 from USDA's Rural Utilities Service under the Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program (CFDA 10.760) on June 29, 2026, with performance extending through June 29, 2028, for water system improvements in Correctionville, IA. The city also received $166,500 under USDA's Community Facilities Loans and Grants program (CFDA 10.766) on March 10, 2022, for community facility construction to serve residents impacted by recent tornadoes and floods, with that award's ultimate completion date passing in March 2024. In its sub-recipient role, Correctionville has participated in fourteen federal grant sub-awards since October 2025, predominantly flowing through the Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management Department — the primary pass-through entity — and covering debris removal, emergency protective measures, roads and bridges, public buildings and equipment, public utilities, and property acquisition and management. One sub-award flowed through the Iowa Department of Natural Resources for lead service line replacement (September 26, 2025). Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance awards account for 12 of the city's 16 total awards in the source data; USDA Rural Utilities Service and Rural Housing Service combined account for 3; EPA Region 7 accounts for 1.

Activity spiked in 2025 with nine awards and continues in 2026 with five awards to date, compared to sparse prior-year activity (one award each in 2009 and 2022). Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating stable grant funding through 2028. The city's combined federal obligated dollars total $3.1 million across all awards and sub-awards. Correctionville operates as a small rural municipality accessing federal infrastructure and disaster-recovery grants; the city is not a vendor in the commercial federal contracting sense and does not pursue competitive procurement relationships with other federal contractors.
