About Us

Who We Are

Incorporated in 1990, the Delaware Rural Water Association (DRWA) has emerged as our State’s leading association dedicated to providing on-site technical assistance and specialized training for rural water and wastewater systems. Tapping into the expertise of experienced water and wastewater professionals, DRWA’s governing Board of Directors, administrative staff, and technical field specialists work in concert to offer DRWA members an expansive range of essential programs and member services. We meet system needs though timely help in developing new rate schedules, setting up proper testing methods, understanding those ever-changing and complex government regulations, preparing a Consumer Confidence Report (CCR), or updating operator certification requirements. Delaware Rural Water Association is always ready with member assistance.

Mission Statement

DRWA’s mission is to meet the needs of member water and wastewater systems by providing quality information, training and technical assistance and legislative representation, and to assist them in maintaining a high standard of service to their communities.
