Meeting Programs

Every year NYWEA hosts our Annual Meeting, New York’s largest water quality technical conference, at the Marriott Marquis in NYC. It has a robust roster of technical sessions, an expansive exhibit hall, and provides ample time for networking/fellowship. You really should consider joining us for the next one on February 3-5, 2025!

Check out the 2024 program below.

And our Spring Meeting is not to be missed. It moves throughout the state, and was held this year in Buffalo from June 4-6. It had a great Operations Challenge event, and a Dunk Tank to support Operation SOS: Support Operator Scholarships. Hopefully we’ll see you in Saratoga next year from June 3-5!

See the 2024 program below.

The NYC Watershed Conference is a joint venture between NYWEA, the NYC Department of Environmental Protection the the NYS Department of State with the 2024 event being held at Bear Mountain Inn in Tomkins Cove, New York. It was a day-long technical program that featured over 20 presentations, which can be viewed in the program below.
