ACWWA is a section of the American Water Works Association (AWWA) and a member association of Water Environment Federation (WEF). ACWWA is comprised of over 550 water professionals from Atlantic Canada representing the water and wastewater industry from a number of disciplines including system design and consulting, utility management and operations, academia and students, and service providers and contractors.
Number and Value: Up to five awards with a value of $1,000 each plus a one-year student membership to AWWA and ACWWA. One winner may be selected for each Atlantic Canadian province: NB, NL, NS, and PEI, with one award available to the next strongest applicant.
Craig Kelman & Associates Scholarship
As the publisher of Go with the Flow, the official publication of the Atlantic Canada Water and Wastewater Association, Craig Kelman & Associates has a deep appreciation for the readers and members of ACWWA whose task it is to ensure that water taken from and put back into our precious earth is clean and safe.
To demonstrate their admiration and respect for the association, its members, and the water industry as a whole, they have established a yearly educational scholarship funded through a percentage of advertising sales generated in Go with the Flow.
Number and Value: One yearly cash award with a value of $500 plus a one-year membership to AWWA and ACWWA.
Bill Butler Scholarship
Bill Butler was a lifelong contributor to the water and wastewater industry in Atlantic Canada and a very active member of ACWWA and AWWA. Bill spent much of his career at Saint John City's Water and Sewerage Department and later served as the Commissioner of Community Services in Saint John.
Two of Bill's biggest interests were people and water, which combined in his appointment as President of Water for People - Canada from 1994 until retirement. In whatever area Bill worked, he showed enthusiasm, professionalism, and above all, a true interest in the people he worked with.
Bill Butler passed away in 2018 and, in his honour, ACWWA has established a yearly educational scholarship of $1,500, where $1,000 is awarded to the successful applicant and $500 is donated to Water for People.
Number and Value: One yearly cash award with a value of $1,000 plus a one-year membership to AWWA and ACWWA. A $500 donation to Water for People will be simultaneously given in the name of the ACWWA Bill Butler Scholarship.
