ACEC/MW held its annual Water/Wastewater Luncheon on September 8, 2022, at the beautiful Hamilton Live in Washington, DC, featuring a great line-up of Utility Partner Leaders from Fairfax Water, WSSC Water, USACE Baltimore District - Washington Aqueduct, and DC Water! We would like to give a special thanks to the continued support and coordination we receive from our Utility Partners!

A special congratulations to Kishia L. Powell, Chief Operating Officer, and Executive Vice President of DC Water, for being selected as recipient of the ACEC/MW Meritorious Service Award! Her support of ACEC/MW, unmatched advocacy for equity, and drive as a public servant are only a few reasons why she was recognized by ACEC/MW.
