About the company
Community Water Center, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Visalia, California, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient to develop and implement climate-resilient drinking water infrastructure and community water equity programs, with secondary engagement as a sub-recipient on environmental health research grants. The organization does not hold federal contracts or compete under set-aside categories; its federal footprint is entirely grant-based, sourced from the Environmental Protection Agency and the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
Community Water Center's recent prime grant work centers on water system consolidation and climate adaptation in rural California. The anchor award is a $20 million full-federal-funding Environmental and Climate Justice Community Change Grants Program award (CFDA 66.616) from EPA Region 9, announced April 1, 2025, under the Inflation Reduction Act. The award funds a drinking water consolidation project that merges the Pajaro, Sunny Mesa, and Springfield water systems in Watsonville, California, operated through a statutory partnership with Pajaro Sunny Mesa Community Services District. Deliverables include construction of an iron and manganese treatment facility for Pajaro Well No. 1, flood vulnerability upgrades to the well site, a pump station connecting systems, tank rehabilitation, inter-system pipelines, a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system with radio-read meters, and climate action measures including residential rainwater catchment at 30 households and laundry-to-landscape greywater reuse at 20 households, with provisions for a second phase consolidating private wells around Springfield.
Community Water Center serves as a sub-recipient on two research grants from the University of California Regents: a February 28, 2023 sub-award to develop water sampling protocols and recruit households for water quality analysis in the Tulare Lake Basin and Central Coast, and a June 9, 2023 sub-award supporting the CEC-WESS Water Equity Science Ship initiative. The organization's federal grant portfolio totals $20.2 million across five awards spanning 2011 to 2025, with EPA accounting for three awards and NIH-NIEHS for two.
