The Canadian Association on Water Quality (CAWQ) was established as
a voluntary not-for-profit organization in 1967 as a collection of
individuals from industry, government and academia who were interested
in water treatment and pollution control. Since that time, the
organization has evolved to include engineers, scientists and managers
who are directly involved in issues surrounding water quality. The
objectives of the CAWQ are to:
- promote research on the scientific, technological, legal,
and administrative aspects of water quality and of the control and
treatment of water pollution,
- further the exchange of information and practical application of such research for the public benefit, and
- promote the goals and objectives of the International Water Association (IWA).
The activities of the CAWQ include, but are not limited to:
- publishing the Water Quality Research Journal of Canada,
- organizing and promoting regional and national symposia on water quality and water pollution research in Canada,
- co-operating with other organizations which have similar objectives and interests,
- representing Canada on the IWA Board thereby: presenting and promoting the goals of CAWQ to the IWA, including the promotion of Utilities-related activities,
presenting Canadian views on the policies and activities of the IWA,
