Presentation on Agency Partnership towards an Innovative Water Project

On December 8, 2021, Adel Hagekhalil, the General Manager of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, and Robert Ferrante, the General Manager of the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts, gave a presentation on the importance of our agencies' partnership on the Regional Recycled Water Program (RRWP): an innovative effort that could provide a new source of water for 1.5 million people.

After a wide-ranging search, we have found a new Executive Director for our organization. We have chosen Ilyse Shapiro, MBA, CMP to lead The Academy going forward. Her experience, credentials, and energy are a great match for what The Academy needs in order to meet the challenges that lie ahead.

Welcome aboard, Ilyse!

The AAEES Student Chapter at Ohio University recently held an event that gave them a chance to showcase the value The Academy can bring to environmental engineering and science students. We sent shirts, pens and brochures to support their efforts and the event was a great success. Sarah Maracz, a fifth-year civil engineering student shared her enthusiasm of our program with new students.
