Not clear. The result you present is exactly what one would expect once your code has been rearranged like

Code:
awk -v a="$ROW_ID_TO_SEARCH" '
        {if ($1 == a)   if ($2 == "") printf ("ID_NULL --> ROW_ID:%s\tVALUE:%s\n",      $1, $2)
           else         if ($2 != "") printf ("ID_NOLT_NULL --> ROW_ID:%s\tVALUE:%s\n", $1, $2)
    }
' file

If your search pattern is not found AND $2 holds a value, print that "ID_NOLT_NULL" - line.

What is your desire? What am I missing here?

NAME
rbash - restricted bash, see bash(1) RESTRICTED SHELL
If bash is started with the name rbash, or the -r option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted. A restricted shell is used to set up an environment more controlled than the standard shell. It behaves identically to bash with the exception that the follow- ing are disallowed or not performed: o changing directories with cd o setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH, ENV, or BASH_ENV o specifying command names containing / o specifying a filename containing a / as an argument to the . builtin command o specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the -p option to the hash builtin command o importing function definitions from the shell environment at startup o parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell environment at startup o redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and >> redirection operators o using the exec builtin command to replace the shell with another command o adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and -d options to the enable builtin command o using the enable builtin command to enable disabled shell builtins o specifying the -p option to the command builtin command o turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o restricted. These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read. When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed, rbash turns off any restrictions in the shell spawned to execute the script. SEE ALSO
