INDIANAPOLIS, IN & AUSTIN, TX (JANUARY 21, 2022) – 120Water and the Texas Rural Water Association (TRWA) announced a new partnership that will expand the technical assistance and support available to TRWA members, with a focus on equipping systems with tools and resources to successfully manage drinking water quality programs related to lead and other contaminants. The partnership will also increase 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).
“We strive to provide our members with the latest training, information and resources to help them comply with new rule requirements. With the technical expertise 120Water brings to the table, we’re excited to be able to deploy solutions for the new Lead and Copper Rule requirements more quickly,” said Lara Zent, Executive Director of the TRWA.
As the leading end-to-end solution for managing critical lead and drinking water programs, 120Water enables local and state governments, water systems and facilities to manage water quality and prioritize investments that protect public health. The 120Water solution — which will be available with preferred pricing to TRWA members — automates actions needed to meet compliance requirements, such as LCR, and ensures timely and transparent communication with stakeholders and the public.
“With infrastructure funding and the LCR revisions here, this is a timely partnership to help TRWA 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 to safeguard water quality and protect public health.”
