NACWA’s newly formed Environmental Justice Committee will hold its first virtual meeting on Thursday, April 7th from 3:30 – 5:00 p.m. (Eastern).

Details concerning the event will be sent in the near future by Committee Co-Chairs Andrew Lee, Interim General Manager / CEO at Seattle Public Utilities, and Sharise Horne, Director of Community Benefits & Partnerships at Louisville & Jefferson County Metropolitan Sewer District. 

In the meantime, you can get caught up on the inaugural Environmental Justice Committee meeting held last month at NACWA’s Winter Conference by reviewing the presentations provided by the Committee Co-Chairs, Senior Counsel at the New York City Law Department and NACWA Legal Affairs Committee Co-Chair Devon Goodrich, and Vice President – Senior Project Manager for Wade-Trim Associates, Roger Cooley. 

The work of the Committee will be guided by the NACWA Board approved Statement of Principles and Recommended Actions on Environmental Justice.
