Red Rock Rural Water System

Red Rock Rural Water System is a U.S. local government entity that provides water and waste disposal services to rural communities in Minnesota. Through the Department of Agriculture's Rural Utilities Service Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program (CFDA 10.760), Red Rock Rural Water System has received four prime federal project grants from 2018-2022 totaling over $4 million to support providing clean water and waste disposal to financially needy rural areas in Minnesota.

Specifically, the federal grants have allowed Red Rock Rural Water System to fund critical water infrastructure and waste disposal projects in rural Minnesota communities that lack access to clean water and reasonable utility costs. The project grants have supported water and waste disposal work in areas like Jeffers, Minnesota, ensuring underserved residents and businesses have access to essential water services. Red Rock Rural Water System has utilized the federal funding to directly carry out water and waste disposal projects serving these communities through the Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities program. The program provides financial assistance to rural communities for water and waste projects aimed at achieving reasonable costs for rural users. As a local government entity, Red Rock Rural Water System performs this public works function of water and waste service delivery to rural Minnesotans.
