THE WATER AND WASTE OPERATORS ASSOCIATION OF MARYLAND, DELAWARE AND DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
2025 WWOA SERVICE AWARDS
The CWEA, CSAWWA, and WWOA Tri-Association conference will take place August 26th through August 29th, 2025, at the Roland E. Powell Convention Center, 4001 Coastal Highway, Ocean City, MD 21842. At the conference, WWOA presents its Distinguished Service Awards to outstanding individuals in the Water, Wastewater, and Solid Waste fields.
Safety, quality, and quantity of product, permit compliance, and cost control are the priorities in our business. Often, the communities we serve, and our employers do not fully recognize the extraordinary contributions we make on their behalf. Recognition from one’s peers is among the greatest compliments a person can receive. If you know someone who has made significant improvements in facility safety, permit compliance issues, reduced O & M costs, or has gone above and beyond the call of duty to educate coworkers, then WWOA has an award waiting for them.
This is where you come in. Please take a moment to look over the award descriptions and submit a short biography (oral biographies will not be accepted) of a deserving associate. Nominations are accepted from co-workers, supervisors, and vendors. You do not have to be a WWOA member to submit a nomination; however, you must be a WWOA member to be eligible for most awards. Nominations must be received by July 16th, 2025, for consideration.
