  • SDWA Turns 48: A Reflection of the Regulatory Landscape and What’s Next

    Register now for ASDWA’s free webinar “SDWA Turns 48: A Reflection of the Regulatory Landscape and What’s Next”

    The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) was initially signed on December 16, 1974, and this one-hour free webinar on its 48th anniversary (December 16, 2022, from 2:30-3:30 EST) will summarize the SDWA history and the current regulatory landscape in the first half-hour. The second half-hour will be a forward look towards the 50th anniversary of the SDWA on December 16, 2024, noting that EPA and the Association of Clean Water Administrators (ACWA) celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Clean Water Act (CWA) on October 18, 2022. The webinar will be an opportunity to get the drinking water community to start thinking about what’s worked, what hasn’t worked so well, and what data or information would be needed to make informed decisions on what might need to be revised in the SDWA sometime in the future.

    Note that ASDWA is unable to offer continuing education credits or certificates of completion for this event.
