AWWMA
works to provide opportunities that bring knowledge, expertise,
and technology to water and wastewater industry professionals in
Alaska. Our conferences
and workshops are attended by a diverse group of professionals
from large and small utilities, and the professionals that operate,
educate, and regulate them. Our
organization is governed by a Board
of Directors and driven by Committees -
a team of volunteers dedicated to the water and wastewater profession
in an effort to provide Clean, Safe Water for Alaska.
AKWARN:
A Water and Wastewater Agency Response Network (WARN) is a network
of utilities helping other utilities to respond to and recover from
emergencies. While the WARN initiative is coordinated by American
Water Works Association (AWWA), WARNs are organized on a state by
state basis and are managed by the utilities themselves. Thirty-four
states have established a WARN, and Alaska is currently working towards
the development of AKWARN.
