The Connecticut Chapter and the Wentworth Institute of Technology Student Chapter are the only Chapters within the New England Section.  Members with addresses in the state of Connecticut are automatically members of the A&WMA Connecticut Chapter. 

Activities

The A&WMA New England Section holds a full-day Fall Conference each year, as well as other meetings (e.g., breakfast meetings, dinner meetings, and meetings co-sponsored with other organizations).  Members always receive a discounted registration fee to these events and are kept informed via our newsletter, mailings and/or e-mail, and our web page.  Local meetings enable members to exchange technical and managerial information with colleagues "operating right in their own backyard."  For a list of A&WMA events, as well as other environmental conferences, seminars, and meetings of potential interest to A&WMA members, please see the Events Page.

Career networking is also encouraged, and New England Section members can advertise positions within their companies on the A&WMA-NES web site at no charge.  Job Postings on the web will be updated as they are received by the Section.  If you have any openings for environmental professionals, please email the information to neil.p.mccaffrey@parsons.com.

The New England Section also engages in various educational outreach activities.

Executive Board

The A&WMA New England Section has its own Executive Board.  For a list of Board Members and contact information, please see the Executive Board Page.  You may also review the minutes of recent board meetings from that page.
