Winter Conference

2019winer-conference-icon

February 5-8, 2019
Albuquerque, NM

In passing the Clean Water Act (CWA) and the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), Congress had two different goals and objectives in sight. The CWA was a means to mitigate point source pollution and achieve the goal of “fishable and swimmable” surface waters in the United States. The SDWA aimed to protect public health and provide safe, high quality drinking water from source to tap. Over the last 50 years, programs under each Act have matured differently, but perhaps now more than ever, wastewater and drinking water issues are overlapping in the real world. NACWA’s 2019 Winter Conference takes a deep look into the progress of the CWA, its nexus with the SDWA, and asks whether the palpable intersection between these monumental environmental statutes breeds conflict or collaboration for the water sector.
