Louisiana Rural Water Association Takes
Home National Awards


National Rural Water Association is pleased to announce that the Louisiana Rural Water Association won two prestigious awards at NRWA’s Annual Tribute to Excellence Awards Ceremony held in Dallas, Texas on September 27.

Receiving the Platinum Pump Award for Excellence in Rural Water Response, Louisiana Rural Water Association knows how to assist water and wastewater systems across their state with excellent service.  This dedication to service was really seen when LRWA put in countless hours after Hurricanes Katrina and Rita struck the state.   

The association was also recognized for its outstanding legislative work with the Excellence in National Legislation Award.

The NRWA Awards in Excellence program was established to recognize the outstanding efforts of the Member State Affiliates, their staff, and special members of the rural water industry. 

The National Rural Water Association is a non-profit federation of State Rural Water Associations.  Its mission: to provide state associations with support services to meet the needs of their membership.  NRWA is America’s largest utility association with over 25,735 members.   Historically, NRWA’s state associations have trained over 55,000 water and wastewater system personnel each year for two decades.  They also provide over 100,000 on-site technical assistance visits a year.
