Organization:
General Statement: Texas Rural Water Association (the Association), affiliated with the National Rural Water Association, is a nonprofit Texas corporation without capital stock and is exempt from Federal taxes under Internal Revenue Code 501(c)(6).
The Association is a voluntary trade organization of rural water supply corporations, water districts, municipal water systems, and other organizations associated with providing water to rural areas within the State of Texas. The Association provides a variety of services to its members, including technical assistance from state and federal contracts, educational programs in the form of classroom and online training, area meetings, various workshops and conferences, legal assistance, and a bi-monthly magazine that allows members to stay current on water related news and associated activities.
Funding for the Association is provided primarily by federal and state contracts, membership dues and conferences, and course fees.
Texas Rural Water Foundation (the Foundation) is a separate nonprofit organization established as a 501(c)(3) charitable corporation exempt from federal income taxes. The Foundation is a supporting organization of the Association with a mission to strengthen and advance the water and wastewater industry and to support and expand on the work of the Association. The Foundation is governed by a separate Board of Directors comprised of the current Association Board President and a minimum of four other members of the Association Board of Directors. Funding is provided primarily by donations.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Association and the Foundation because the Association has both control and an economic interest in the Foundation. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The entities are collectively referred to as the Association within.
Basis of accounting: The Association uses the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded as earned and expenses recorded as incurred.
Dues are assessed in advance at the end of each calendar year based on the number of water meters reported voluntarily by the members. Since dues are voluntary, no allowance for doubtful accounts and no accounts receivable are recorded. Deferred dues are dues received in one fiscal year which are related to the following fiscal year. The Association receives grants from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) through the National Rural Water Association (NRWA). Grants received by the Association are reflected as revenue as expenses are incurred subject to grant funding. The Association also receives money directly from contracts with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB). Trade accounts receivable are recorded when training classes and advertising have been provided to members and non-members. Trade accounts receivable are considered delinquent at 30 days past due and are charged off when management considers the account uncollectible.
Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 3 – 5 years for Furnishings, Equipment and Vehicles and 10 – 25 years for Buildings and Improvements. The Association capitalizes purchases of property and equipment with a useful life of more than one year and an original cost equal to or greater than $5,000.
Grant, Contract and Other Receivables: Grant, contract and other receivables are reported at the amount management expects to collect on balances outstanding at year-end. Management closely monitors outstanding balances and writes off, as of year-end, all balances that are considered to be uncollectible.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and U.S. Treasury secured money market mutual funds. The Association also considers other highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Investments: Investments in marketable securities with readily determinable fair values and all investments in debt securities are reported at their fair values in the statement of financial position in accordance with ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement” (ASC 820). Fair value is determined based on quoted market prices, observable inputs, and unobservable inputs. Unrealized gains and losses are included in the change in net assets. Realized gains and losses are computed by utilizing either the first in, first out basis or the average cost.
Federal Income Taxes: The Association is exempt from Federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) 501(c)(6) and the Foundation is exempt under IRC 501(c)(3). The Association files an Exempt Organization Business Income Tax return (Form 990-T) with the IRS to report its unrelated business taxable income. The Association’s policy is to record interest and penalties related to income taxes as interest and other expense, respectively. At December 31, 2024, no interest and penalties have been or are required to be accrued.
Classification of Net Assets:
The financial statement presentation follows the recommendations of the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 958, “Not-for-Profit Entities,” where net assets are classified based on the existence or absence of donor or grantor-imposed restrictions. The net assets with donor restrictions are those donated to the legal defense fund (legal defense reserve) established for future contingencies, a building fund (building reserve) established for building repairs, a disaster relief fund, the Legacy Scholarship fund, and the Dwayne Jekel Scholarship fund. The net assets without donor restrictions are for use in general operations. The governing board has designated some of these net assets for an operating reserve and the other named reserve accounts in the consolidated statement of financial position.
Revenue Recognition:
Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09) requires the recognition of revenues in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Association expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services. For these “exchange transactions”, the new model requires the identification of performance obligations included in contracts with customers, a determination of the transaction price, and an allocation of the price to those performance obligations. The Association can only recognize revenue when performance obligations are satisfied. For “non-exchange transactions”, revenues are recognized when earned regardless of when cash is received. The following table, and the discussion which follows, summarizes the Association’s revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024:
Revenue Classification
Exchange Non-Exchange Totals
Federal contracts $ 0 $ 1,716,480 $ 1,716,480
State contracts 2,147,760 2,147,760
Membership dues 1,448,440 1,448,440
Conventions & conferences 687,362 687,362
Professional development & training 1,760,815 1,760,815
Contributions 333,079 333,079
Advertising 75,989 75,989
Other revenue from contracts with customers 392,206 392,206
Other 387,634 387,634
Total Revenues $ 6,512,572 $ 2,437,193 $ 8,949,765
State contracts: Revenues are recognized monthly based on the level of completed “assignments” received from TCEQ and the stipulated contractual reimbursement rates. Performance obligations for the state contracts are satisfied as services are rendered. The services provided under this contract include assessing, assisting, and improving the Financial, Managerial, and Technical capabilities of public drinking water systems and wastewater systems in Texas. The Association generally has a right to consideration in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Association’s performance completed to date and may recognize revenue in the amount to which the Association has invoiced and has elected to recognize as revenue for these services using the invoice practical expedient. The amounts are billed to the state agency one month in arrears. The amount earned is based on rates established in the contract for specific tasks and hourly rates for staff time. In late 2022, the Association was one of several contractors awarded a contract from the TWDB for a project titled Asset Management Program for Small Systems (“AMPSS”). Selected water and wastewater systems chose to receive services from one of the contractors and four chose to work with the Association. The Association provides these systems with tools to facilitate short, medium, and long-term planning, efficient operations and maintenance of infrastructure, sustainable use structures, and identification of funding opportunities. In 2024 the Association was awarded a new one year contract by the TWDB titled Water Utilities Technical Assistance Program (“WUTAP”), to perform technical assistance services in the form of review of existing operating procedures, guidance on financial, managerial and/or technical issues as needed, and to assist participating communities in identifying areas where potential improvements could be made.
Membership dues: These revenues reflect both regular utility member dues and associate member dues. Member dues are generally assessed each December for the upcoming calendar year based on the number of water meters reported voluntarily by the members, subject to minimums and maximums established periodically by the Association. Member dues are payable by March 31st of the subsequent year. Membership benefits include legal services, advocacy, on-site assistance, emergency response assistance, training & education, publications, and various conference related activities. Associate member benefits include access rights to the Association’s online member directory, reduced pricing on exhibit booths, advertising discounts, and sponsorship opportunities. Since dues are voluntary, no allowance for doubtful accounts and no accounts receivable are recorded. Membership dues revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the membership, which is one calendar year. Deferred dues are dues received in one fiscal year which are related to the following fiscal year.
Conventions and conferences: The Association hosts an annual convention and two other conferences each year at strategic locations throughout Texas, which provide members, exhibitors, and sponsors a unique training and networking opportunity. Attendees pay fees in advance, which are only recognized as revenue in the period in which the conference services are fully provided by the Association – generally at the conclusion of the event. Members receive discounted rates. To the extent any such fees are paid in a fiscal year prior to the event, they are recorded as deferred revenues.
Professional development & training: The Association’s Professional Development & Training Department offers specialized training on topics such as operations, treatment, regulations, maintenance, operator certification and management skills in both an online and classroom format. Customers pay a fee in advance, which is only recognized as revenue in the period in which the training services are fully provided by the Association – generally at the conclusion of the class. Members receive discounted rates. To the extent any such fees are paid in a fiscal year prior to the event, they are recorded as deferred revenues.
Advertising: Advertising revenues primarily reflect advertisements in the Association’s “Quench” publication, which is published six times each year and is distributed to all regular and associate members, as well as to other state associations. Advertising revenues are recognized upon the publication and release of each issue.
Other fee revenue:
• Field service revenues – The Association offers water and wastewater utility members a variety of services to help them optimize their systems or troubleshoot problems. These services include Geographic Information Systems (GIS) mapping, asset management, tank inspections, and UAV/Drone services. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the contractually-agreed services.
• Eminent domain fees – Senate Bill 1812 by the 2015 Texas Legislature requires all entities with eminent domain authority to report specific information to the Texas Comptroller on a yearly basis. The Association earns a fee, which is discounted for members, for filing the members’ required annual report with the Texas Comptroller’s office. The report is required to be filed by February 1st each year. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the required filing for each member.
• Publication sales – Primarily reflects the sale of operator certification manuals to customers. Revenue is recognized upon the shipment of the publications.
• Partnership revenues – Primarily reflects collaborations with an entity involved in lending money to water or wastewater systems, which includes bridge loans for USDA Rural Development long-term project financing; and with an entity that provides various insurance products to water and wastewater systems. Revenues are recognized upon the completion of contractual deliverables, generally monthly or quarterly.
In general, revenue recognized does not have a significant financing component because payments terms are relatively short. Determining a measure of progress requires management to make judgments that affect the timing of revenue recognized. The Association has determined that the above methods provide a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods or services to the customer.
Federal contracts: A portion of the Association’s revenue is derived from cost-reimbursable federal contracts, which are conditioned upon certain performance requirements and/or the incurrence of allowable qualifying expenses. These contracts are identified as “conditional”. Amounts received are treated as nonexchange transactions and recognized as revenue when the Association has incurred expenditures in compliance with specific contract or grant provisions. The Association has received cost-reimbursable grants of $879,217 that have not been recognized at December 31, 2024, because qualifying expenditures have not yet been incurred. Receipt of these funds is contingent upon continued federal funding of the Federal Grant.
Contributions: Reflects voluntary contributions to the Association’s legal fund, building fund, disaster relief fund, or to the Foundation. Since the contributions are voluntary, no allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded.
Other revenue: consists of various nonexchange revenue streams including gains on dispositions of assets, and investment income. The revenue is recognized as earned regardless of when cash is received.
Functional Expenses:
The costs of providing various programs and other activities have been listed according to their nature and function in the consolidated statement of functional expenses. Some expenses require allocation on a reasonable basis that is consistently applied. The expenses that are allocated include depreciation, which is allocated based on other direct costs for each program, and personnel expenses, which are allocated based on amount of time spent on each program as documented by time sheets or logs. Individual expense transactions that relate entirely to a specific function are not allocated, but are recorded directly to that function. The Association’s functional expense cost categories consist of the following:
State: Includes the activities related to the contracts with TCEQ, AMPSS, and WUTAP.
Federal: Includes the activities relating to the federal funds contracts with NRWA and other pass through grantor agencies.
Professional Development and Training: Includes the activities relating to the educational classes provided by the Association for operator certification credit.
Executive Director, Legal and Legislative: Includes the activities relating to the legal and legislative services provided by the Association to its members.
Membership: Includes the activities relating to all other member services provided by the Association including conferences, area meetings, seminars and publications.
Management and General: Includes the general and administrative activities of the Association.
Texas Rural Water Foundation: Includes the general and administrative activities of the Foundation, including the issuance of scholarship awards.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Subsequent Events:
The Association has evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through the date of the Independent Auditor’s Report, the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. There have been no events that have occurred that would require adjustments to our disclosures in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

The revised investment policy provides for minimum and maximum percentages to be invested in Fixed Income, Equities (including large-cap, small and mid-cap, and international), Other (primarily real estate investment trusts and commodities), and Cash and Money Market funds. The new Investment Policy was implemented in July of 2021.
All investment income, including changes in the fair value of investments, is recognized as revenue in the
statement of activities. Realized gains and losses reflect those investments actually sold. Unrealized gains or losses are differences in beginning of year fair value of the investment and the fair value of the investment as of the statement of financial position date, adjusted for any purchases and sales during the year.
Title: NOTE 3: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Accounting Policies: Basis of Accounting: The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
De Minimis Rate Used: N
Rate Explanation: The auditee did not use the minimis cost rate
The Association has determined that the only material assets and liabilities in the Association’s financial statements that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis are the cash equivalents and marketable securities portfolio. The Association defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Association applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
• Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Association’s marketable securities portfolio consist of equity exchange traded products, fixed income exchange traded products, and Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) exchange traded products and are reflected on our consolidated statement of financial position under the heading Investments.
The following summarizes the fair value of our financial instruments at December 31, 2024:
Money Market Funds and Certificates of Deposits are excluded, as they are recorded at amortized cost and not subject to fair value.

On April 10, 2024 the Association completed the acquisition of new office space in an existing office condominium project located in Austin, Texas. The new downtown Austin office facility consists of approximately 11,000 square feet of occupiable space, and will serve as the Associations new headquarters’ facility upon the completion of remodeling work in early 2025. The purchase price was approximately $5,365,000 and consisted of $1,697,000 in cash and a promissory note with Frost Bank in the amount of $3,500,000. $3,621,000 of the purchase price was allocated to the office space, with $1,704,000 allocated to land.

The initial term of the interest-only note is for two years, with the interest rate calculated monthly based on the Ameribor Term-30 benchmark plus 2.5%, or approximately 7.86% per annum as of the purchase date. At the maturity date of April 10, 2026 the entire amount of the Note, principal and accrued interest then remaining unpaid, shall be then due and payable.
