물 분야에서 주요한 역할을 하는 다양한 그룹들이 워싱턴 DC에서 열리는 2015년 Water Week 행사에서 힘을 합칠 예정이다. 4월 12일에서 18일까지 열리는 이번 행사는 연간 2회 열리며, 수백 명의 물과 폐수 산업 종사자들을 초청한다.

종사자들은 의회 의원 및 연방 규제 당국과 만나 물 발전의 법적 규제와 입법의 해결안을 논의하며, 신기술에 대한 공개행사를 진행해 국가적인 물문제의 조언을 전문가에게 구한다.

 

 

 

Next month, a diverse group of major U.S. water sector organizations will come together and join forces in Washington, D.C., to support Water Week 2015.

 

Taking place April 12-18, the 2nd annual event will convene hundreds of water and wastewater industry leaders to meet with members of Congress and federal regulators; discuss key legislative, regulatory and legal water developments; showcase innovations and new technologies; and celebrate the progress of experts in addressing the nation's water challenges.

 

Accordingly, Water Week 2015 will provide a platform at the nation's capital for these industry experts to advocate for national policies that advance clean and safe waters in support of a healthy, sustainable environment.

 

The event is designed to inform and inspire local, state and national leaders and communicate the considerable value that the water sector brings to environmental protection, economic development and job creation.

 

Water Week is organized by the National Association of Clean Water Agencies, Water Environment Federation, Water Environment Research Foundation, and WateReuse Research Foundation, with support from national, state and regional water organizations.
