Membership Has Its Benefits!

By Candice Jackson, Membership Services Manager

Joining the California Rural Water Association means gaining access to a comprehensive suite of services designed to support and strengthen water and wastewater systems across the state. Members benefit from expert SUSP Operations assistance, helping utilities maintain compliance and efficiency in day-to-day operations. In addition, URIS Insurance provides tailored coverage options that protect systems, staff, and communities, offering peace of mind in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.

Beyond operations and insurance, CRWA delivers technical excellence through SUSP Engineering services, ensuring that systems have access to professional guidance for planning, design, and infrastructure improvements. Members also receive specialized support in Backflow and Cross Connection control, a critical component of protecting public health and maintaining water quality standards. These services are complemented by hands-on training opportunities that keep operators, managers, and board members informed, certified, and prepared for evolving industry demands.

Affordability and value are at the core of CRWA membership, with low-cost annual dues that make these essential resources accessible to even the smallest systems. Members also receive the California Water Journal, a trusted source of industry news, regulatory updates, and best practices. With many additional benefits and a strong network of professionals, becoming part of the California Rural Water Association is an investment in the long-term sustainability, safety, and success of your community’s water system.
