The American Water Works Association (AWWA)
is an international nonprofit scientific and educational society dedicated to
the improvement of drinking water quality and supply. AWWA is defined by six
core competencies, through which we communicate and interact with all of our
audiences. More information about each competency is available by clicking the
links listed across the top of every page on the Web site. Together, the
competencies distinguish AWWA as the authoritative resource for knowledge,
information, and advocacy to improve the quality and supply of drinking water in
North America and beyond.
Founded in 1881, AWWA is the largest organization of water supply professionals
in the world. Its more than 59,000 members represent the full spectrum of the
drinking water community: treatment plant operators and managers, scientists,
environmentalists, manufacturers, academicians, regulators, and others who hold
genuine interest in water supply and public health. Membership includes more
than 4,700 utilities that supply water to roughly 180 million people in North
America.
The Southwest Section is a part of AWWA, and consists of AWWA members in the
states of Arkansas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. The Section conducts training
operations in all three states, including an annual conference. The location of
the annual conference is rotated among the three states.
