About the company
Oregon Association Of Water Utilities Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Independence, Oregon, operates exclusively as a subrecipient on federal water-sector grants, delivering training and technical assistance to rural, tribal, and small publicly-owned water and wastewater systems across the United States.
The organization has no prime contract or grant awards; all eleven recent federal awards are sub-awards routed through the National Rural Water Association as prime grantee. The EPA Office for Water accounts for 9 of these 11 sub-awards (82% of recent volume), with the Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service providing the remaining 2. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $1 million over the past three years, reflecting the grant-funded, capacity-building nature of the work rather than commercial service contracting. The organization serves two distinct federal customer agencies.
Oregon Association Of Water Utilities employs specialized technical staff to deliver compliance and operational training. Named roles include Water Quality Action Specialists providing technical assistance on wastewater treatment operations and sustained compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act, Training Specialists focused on SDWA compliance and long-term sustainability for tribal, small, and rural systems, a Funding Specialist advising on financing planning and acquisition, and a Wastewater Technician delivering hands-on technical assistance to wastewater systems. Work spans tribally-owned and -operated systems, municipalities, publicly-owned treatment works, decentralized wastewater systems, and lagoon-based treatment facilities nationwide. The most recent awards, dated September 2025, include sub-awards for a Water Quality Action Specialist focused on publicly-owned treatment works and decentralized systems, a second Water Quality Action Specialist for decentralized wastewater systems, and a Funding Specialist on financing development and planning.
Recent activity shows five awards in 2025 against four in 2023 and two in 2024, indicating growth in subrecipient volume. Service Contract Inventory data captures minimal federal services activity: roughly 3 FTEs reported across two sub-award records in FY2022 and FY2024, well below the SCI reporting threshold of $150,000 per contract. SCI figures understate grant-funded staffing delivered through the National Rural Water Association; the 3-FTE range reflects only the subset of work meeting SCI's narrow reporting criteria. Oregon Association Of Water Utilities does not compete for prime contracts and does not sit on government-wide vehicles or IDIQs — its federal footprint is confined to sub-recipient roles under EPA and USDA grant programs channeled through a single prime partner.
