Consolidated Water Works District 1

Consolidated Water Works District 1 is a U.S. government entity and municipality registered to receive federal contract and grant awards since December 2004. As a municipal water utility serving the Terrebonne Parish region of Louisiana, it provides essential water services to the local community. Through federal contract and grant awards, Consolidated Water Works District 1 has been engaged in various projects related to water infrastructure, disaster recovery, and emergency response efforts, particularly in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida. The entity's expertise in municipal water operations has been utilized to support federal agencies in maintaining critical water services during disaster recovery operations.

As a prime contractor, Consolidated Water Works District 1 has received multiple firm fixed-price purchase orders from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to provide water services and support in response to Hurricane Ida. These contracts, totaling over $579,000, involve providing continued water services at specified group housing sites established by FEMA in Houma, Schriever, and Baton Rouge, Louisiana to aid hurricane recovery efforts. The contracts run from 2022 through 2025, with no set-aside designations applied. Specifically, the entity has been responsible for maintaining water supply and infrastructure at the Gage Group site in Houma, the West Park Group site in Schriever, and the Gage Court Group site in Houma. These services are crucial for ensuring safe and reliable water access for residents displaced by the hurricane and living in temporary housing sites.

Through federal grant sub-awards from the Louisiana Governor's Office of Homeland Security & Emergency Preparedness, Consolidated Water Works District 1 has received funding for water infrastructure projects related to hurricane recovery and mitigation efforts. These grant-funded activities include work on the Houma Water Treatment Plant, the Schriever Water Treatment Plant, and a bacteriological laboratory. Additionally, the entity has undertaken projects to install chain link fencing at multiple sites and repair water main lines damaged by storms. As a sub-recipient, Consolidated Water Works District 1 carries out these grant-funded activities to restore and harden its water utility systems against future natural disasters in the hurricane-prone region it serves. These projects demonstrate the entity's commitment to improving and maintaining critical water infrastructure to ensure the resilience and safety of the local water supply.
