About the company
Minnesota Rural Water Association Inc., a Minnesota-based nonprofit water sector organization, operates exclusively as a federal grant sub-recipient, delivering training and technical assistance to rural, tribal, and small public water and wastewater systems under awards from the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Agriculture. The organization holds no prime federal contracts, contracts IDVs, or grant awards; all sixteen recent awards are sub-awards flowing through the National Rural Water Association, the federally recognized parent organization.
Minnesota Rural Water Association's customer concentration is split between two federal agencies. The Environmental Protection Agency's Office for Water funds nine sub-awards, while the Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service funds seven, collectively accounting for all sixteen recent awards and $2 million in combined obligated dollars. Award volume has grown modestly — four awards in 2023 to seven in 2025 — with five awards in 2024 marking the midpoint.
The organization's capability portfolio centers on workforce-based technical assistance. Recent sub-award scope includes employing Water Quality Action Specialists to provide training and technical assistance to decentralized wastewater systems, municipalities, publicly owned treatment works, and tribally owned wastewater systems nationwide; employing Training Specialists to support tribal, small, and rural public water systems in Safe Drinking Water Act compliance and long-term sustainability; employing an Energy Efficiency Technician to assist water and wastewater systems with efficiency measures; employing a Wastewater Technician for wastewater system training and technical assistance; and employing a Disaster Recovery Circuit Rider to provide post-disaster technical assistance to rural water and wastewater systems in presidentially declared disaster areas. These roles flow from federal grants rather than procurement vehicles, and delivery is scoped to workforce employment rather than service delivery through existing staffing.
Service Contract Inventory data covers two fiscal years (FY2022 and FY2024) with minimal scale — roughly 3 FTEs delivered per fiscal year as a named subcontractor on federal service contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold. SCI captures only a subset of federal service work and excludes grant activity entirely; these figures do not represent the organization's total federal footprint or enterprise revenue. The organization operates as a technical assistance delivery partner within the National Rural Water Association's broader federal grant portfolio, focusing on capacity building and regulatory compliance support for underserved rural water systems across multiple regions.
