CSWEA and The Water Council Partnership Announcement

We are excited to announce a new partnership between the Central States Water Environment Association (CSWEA) and The Water Council!

This collaboration will help CSWEA members connect with emerging technology companies, engage in research and piloting opportunities, and get plugged into events and training that will increase members’ awareness of and access to innovations that are revolutionizing the water industry. In turn, The Water Council will get more exposure for their programming and members.
