Water Environment Federation Announces 2015 WEF Fellows

Designation recognizes achievement, stature, and contributions in water quality

The Water Environment Federation (WEF) proudly announces twelve distinguished members as the 2015 WEF Fellows recipients. This prestigious designation recognizes career achievements, stature, and contributions to the water profession.

“The Fellows designation denotes significant professional accomplishment and contribution to the water environment field,” said WEF Executive Director Eileen O’Neill. “These outstanding individuals have devoted careers in service to clean water and are being recognized by WEF for the substance of their impact in their chosen discipline. They are to be congratulated for their passion and commitment as well as the caliber of their achievements.”

The WEF Fellows Recognition Program underscores WEF’s reputation as a valuable water quality resource, which is due in large part to the expertise of its diverse membership. WEF Fellows are recognized in various areas of expertise including, but not limited to design, education, operations, regulation, research, utility management and leadership.

The 2015 WEF Fellows (see below) will be recognized next month during WEFTEC 2015 in Chicago. Click here (http://www.wef.org/weffellowsprogram/) to learn more about the WEF Fellows Program.
