Leadership

AMWA’s Board of Directors comprises drinking water utility executives and general managers from all corners of the U.S. The Board executes the association’s bylaws, provides guidance to staff on water policy issues and identifies areas where AMWA should focus its activities.

Board members are chosen by their AMWA peers to serve up to two four-year terms. The Board itself selects four officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer) who are trusted with additional operational and leadership responsibilities.
