About the company
Portland Water Co, doing business as Portland Water District, is a local government entity based in Portland, Maine that operates as a sub-recipient on federal water infrastructure and environmental grant programs. The vendor does not hold prime federal contracts or contract vehicles; all recent federal activity is rooted in sub-award grants flowing through Maine state agencies.
Portland Water Co operates almost exclusively within a narrow customer and funding geography. GSA Public Buildings Service Region 1 and EPA Region 1 together account for 100% of recent awards in the source data. The five awards from GSA PBS Region 1 carry a combined potential value of $213 thousand; EPA Region 1 accounts for four additional grants. The vendor serves as a sub-recipient under grants originated by the Department of Environmental Protection Maine and the Maine Department of Health and Human Services, performing water infrastructure and drinking-water program work. Recent named sub-award grants include North Windham Wastewater Treatment Facility improvements (sub-award from DEP Maine, Mar 2025), East End Dewatering Improvements (two separate sub-awards from DEP Maine in Nov 2024 and Jun 2024), and a CDC Drinking Water Program project (sub-award from Maine DHHS, Mar 2024).
The vendor's award history spans two distinct periods with intervening gaps. Nine total awards appear in the source data ranging from 2006 through 2025, but activity is concentrated in two clusters: three awards in 2006–2007 and three awards in 2024 with one award in 2025. The combined obligated value across all awards ($6.6 million) far exceeds the combined potential value ($213 thousand), indicating that award records reflect multiple disbursement cycles or obligation adjustments on multi-year infrastructure grants. Work is classified under Water Supply and Irrigation Systems (NAICS) and Utilities-Water (PSC), consistent with the vendor's municipal water-system mission.
