INDIANAPOLIS & OKEMOS, MI (October 11, 2021) – 120Water and the Michigan Rural Water Association (MRWA) announced a new partnership that will expand the technical assistance and support available to MRWA members, with a focus on equipping systems with tools and resources to successfully manage water quality programs related to lead and other contaminants. The partnership will also expand the resources available to water systems as they prepare to meet new regulatory expectations due to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR).
“120Water’s ability to assist utilities managing lead and drinking water programs will be the first all-encompassing solution available in Michigan. Their unique blend of software, professional services and sample kits will support Michigan systems in a variety of ways and allow those systems to develop the workflow they need to maintain compliance.” said MRWA Executive Director, Tim Neumann.
As the leading end-to-end solution for managing critical lead and drinking water programs, 120Water enables local and state governments, water systems and major facilities to manage water quality and prioritize investments that protect public health. The 120Water solution — which will be available with preferred pricing to MRWA members — automates actions needed to meet compliance requirements, such as LCR, and ensures timely and transparent communication with stakeholders and the public.
“With potential infrastructure funding and LCR revisions on the horizon, this is a timely partnership to help MRWA members get ahead of the curve,” said Lowell Huffman, Director of Partnership at 120Water. “Providing water professionals with the tools to efficiently operate water quality programs will not only help them meet compliance and access funding opportunities, but safeguard water quality and protect public health.
