TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE  >  Assistance via KWO Contract

One of the most significant ways that the Kansas Rural Water Association is able to provide technical assistance to public water systems is through a contract administered by the Kansas Water Office. The funding is a benefit of the Clean Drinking Water Fee. In FY22, the contract provided assistance to 224 cities and 105 rural water systems, public wholesale systems or other water systems. The Association conducted 141 water loss surveys in 75 different water systems (cities and RWDs), locating more than 250 million gallons of loss on an annual basis.

Here is the Summary Report for Fiscal Year 22 for results from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022.
