About this listen

This week on Rural Ripples, we realized we can’t dive into rural water without also exploring the critical role large systems play in shaping the future of rural water systems. We do that in Episode 9 with Tad Bohannon, CEO of Central Arkansas Water (CAW).

As the leader of the largest drinking water utility in Arkansas — serving 500,000 people — Tad has a unique perspective on regional collaboration and innovation in the water sector. Under his leadership, CAW has increased its service territory through traditional consolidations and also has advanced rural water quality and service through non-traditional collaboration means such as peer guidance, court-ordered recievership, and business partnerships.

In Episode 9, Tad shares his views on:

🔹 The public service of water and wastewater work

🔹 Drivers behind successful partnerships with rural systems

🔹 What it takes to build resilient and sustainable water systems for the future and what’s standing in the way
