Illinois Rural Water Association is a non-profit organization of rural water and wastewater systems. We provide training and technical assistance throughout the state of Illinois. Membership is open to all organizations and individuals associated with the water and wastewater industry.

 

 

 

 






We need your assistance!

IMPORTANT NOTICE:  IRWA is asking for your help, from all small and rural system members, operators, and others, in getting on board with a FREE and SIMPLE energy assessment process of their water and/or wastewater utilities.  IRWA needs to conduct more of these for member and other systems across the state to meet our requirements with the federal grant money that we receive for this program year, which ends June 30th.  Please contact any IRWA field staff member, the Office, or Board member, to let them know if you would be willing to help YOUR Association out with this endeavor; or you may directly contact our Energy Efficiency Tech, Steve Stortzum by clicking on the link for that information. 

We are here to help you, but sometimes we need your help, as well!  Thanks, we truly appreciate it!
