Membership Drive Underway
At a recent meeting of the Board of
Directors in Kansas City, ADWA recapped
the organizational success we have had
and elected to move forward with
implementing our strategic plan.
The first order of business is to reach
out to the rest of the companies who
have wastewater treatment devices
certified by ANSI/NSF Standard 40 with
invitations to join as Full
Members. All have been contacted
and we look forward to every eligible
company to join and help us with our
efforts to be the advocate for this
segment of the industry. In
addition, the Associate Member mailing
was sent to a select list of vendors and
manufacturers that supply parts and
technology for the certified companies
and to the decentralized wastewater
industry.
Working together, leaders of the
decentralized wastewater industry can
make a difference and expand the
acceptance of new technologies in the
market through research, education and
lobbying efforts.
