The Stockholm Junior Water Prize (SJWP) is the most prestigious international youth award for a water science research project. Its purpose is to increase students’ interest in water-related issues and research, and to sensitize them – as future leaders – to global water challenges.
Membership in the HWEA Select Society of Sanitary Sludge Shovelers (also known as the “5-S Chapter”) is bestowed on individuals in recognition of outstanding service to the association or to WEF. The original chapter was established in 1940 by theArizona Water and Pollution Control Association. The idea was conceived by A.W. “Dusty” Miller and F. Carlyle Roberts, Jr. to recognize the fact that many members do not receive the coveted Bedell Award or become Association President, but nevertheless contribute in some outstanding measure to the affairs and success of an Association.
HWEA offers up to two $2,000 scholarships every year to provide financial assistance to HWEA members and their dependents seeking higher education, and to encourage academic excellence. Awardee(s) will be invited to the HWEA Conference awards luncheon at no charge to receive their award.
