The Maine Rural Water Association (MRWA) is a private, non-profit organization with a very simple goal—representing rural water and wastewater systems throughout Maine. The Association is run by and for rural systems.

Our program includes training classes for system personnel and administrators on federal and state rules, operation and maintenance, and finance; an information network on keeping you in touch with your neighbor’s system, regulatory agencies, and the legislature; and an effective voice in matters that concern you.

MRWA also provides on site technical support on leak detection, process control, compliance, and source water protection.

In short, the Association is here for and with you on anything from operator certification to securing a grant. Call, write, or email us today! We don’t have all of the answers; we just usually know where to find them.

Q&A for Groundwater Rule Training in Maine

Tom Bahun and Alex Wong assembled Groundwater Rule (GWR) questions asked during the five MRWA GWR training classes held during the summer of 2009 in Caribou, Searsport, York, Mexico, and Wiscasset.  Most of the questions pertained to Maine Drinking Water Program's administration of the GWR.  Click here view the questions with answers determined during the November 12, 2009 meeting and finalized January 19, 2010.
