New Relationship
NEIWPCC Joins Research Foundation
by Marianna Vulli, NEIWPCC
As part of NEIWPCC’s commitment to the advancement of high-quality, applied water resources research, we have joined the Water Environment Research Foundation. WERF is a national leader in water quality research and supports millions of dollars of research annually on wastewater treatment and collection, watersheds and ecosystems, human health effects, and stormwater. This membership-driven, results-oriented organization, funds peer-reviewed research to advance science and technology and to find solutions for priority wastewater and water quality issues.
In an exciting development, NEIWPCC’s Deputy Director Susan Sullivan has been invited to serve on WERF’s Research Council, which oversees the organization’s strategic direction and makes research funding decisions based on member priorities and environmental need. Sullivan will work to represent the Northeast states’ priority research needs as part of this group.
NEIWPCC feels strongly that our membership in WERF will promote our states’ research needs and enhance our states’ ability to make sound water resources policy and management decisions.
