The Pacific Northwest Section of the American Water Works Association is organized in a Division structure. What does this mean? It means that all committees are now structured under a Division, which is spearheaded by a member of the PNWS-AWWA Board of Trustees. Divisions provide an opportunity for like minded committees to partner more closely on training opportunities.
Below is a list of Divisions and the Trustee liaison to that division.
