About the company
Rhode Island Rural Water Association, a nonprofit organization based in North Kingstown, Rhode Island, operates exclusively as a sub-recipient on federal water-infrastructure and wastewater-treatment training grants, with no prime awards or federal contracts in its recent footprint. The organization delivers training and technical assistance to rural, tribal, and small public water systems through specialist positions funded by the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Agriculture.
Rhode Island Rural Water Association has received nine sub-grant awards since September 2023, all routed through the National Rural Water Association as prime grantee. The EPA Office for Water accounts for seven of these awards, with the Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service providing two. Combined obligated value across all nine sub-awards totals $903 thousand. The organization does not hold prime federal contracts, IDVs, or prime federal grants; it operates entirely within a sub-recipient model.
The concrete work consists of employing and deploying specialized training staff to deliver compliance and capacity-building assistance. Recent sub-awards fund a Water Quality Action Specialist focused on decentralized wastewater systems (three awards across 2023, 2024, and 2025); a Water Quality Action Specialist supporting publicly-owned treatment works, decentralized systems, and municipalities (two awards in 2023 and 2025); a Training Specialist providing technical assistance to tribal, small, and rural public water systems to promote SDWA compliance and long-term sustainability (two awards in 2024 and 2025); a Wastewater Technician delivering training to wastewater systems (two awards in 2024 and 2025); and a Funding Specialist providing training on financing planning and acquisition (one award in 2025).
Activity shows growth in recent fiscal years — two awards in 2023, two in 2024, and five in 2025 — reflecting recurring annual sub-award cycles under the National Rural Water Association prime grant vehicle. Service Contract Inventory data captured one named-subcontractor record in FY2024, showing 1.1 FTEs delivered on federal service contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold, though this represents a minimal subset of the organization's total federal activity and does not reflect the full scope of training positions funded through the water-infrastructure grant programs.
