A Bit About Us

Work will include providing grant assistance, project, and technical assistance to Water systems located in the Mojave Water Agency (MWA) service area located in San Bernardino County California. The work will target disadvantaged communities (DACs), since DACs most often do not have the resources available to successfully design and implement proper Water solutions. Small Water districts and mutual water companies that serve DACs often lack training and experience in regulatory compliance and long-term system sustainability. They also suffer from lack of skills or staffing to secure federal and state funding via grant and loan programs.

Service Location The Project service area is in San Bernardino County (candidate from the High Dessert Region of San Bernardino County required).
