Central Iowa Water Association Wins
Statewide Water Taste Test

Newton, IA - September 15, 2009 – Central Iowa Water Association received the 2010 “Best Tasting Water in Iowa” award in a statewide water taste test contest sponsored by the Iowa Rural Water Association (IRWA).  Judges rated water from cities and rural water systems on clarity, taste, after taste, and smell.

Greg Huff, Executive Director of Iowa Rural Water Association, presented the award to Jim LaPlant, Chief Executive Officer of Central Iowa Water Association at the fall IRWA membership meeting held in Okoboji.  Huff noted that the panel of judges holds all entries to a higher standard of quality than the consumer would normally expect. The Central Iowa Water Association entry was drawn from their new, state-of-the-art 3 million gallon per day reverse osmosis water treatment plant near Waverly.

“We are pleased the water from our new water treatment plant received this honor,” stated Dan McGinnis, CIWA Water Production/Quality Manager. “The water quality award represents the commitment we have made to provide the best quality, safe drinking water to families in north central and northeast Iowa.” The water treatment plant began operation in July 2009 creating a new source of water for CIWA’s expanding customer base.

With receipt of this award, CIWA’s water now qualifies to compete at the 2010 Great American Water Taste Test sponsored by the National Rural Water Association held in Washington, D.C. next spring, for the opportunity to be awarded the best tasting water in America.

Central Iowa Water Association is a private, non-profit member owned regional water system serving treated water to over 12,500 rural connections and 70 communities in central and northeast Iowa.
