We also celebrated some of our Project Teams' outstanding members, our 2025 ITRC Impact Award Winner, Dave Becker, as well as some of our past Board of Advisor members.

Throughout the week, PFAS, BioCEC, and Vapor Intrusion met to discuss internal comments, training, and more, while Sustainable Management of Waste from Energy Resources, Underwater Munitions Response, and Green and Sustainable Chemistry met to start focusing on product outlines and key audiences.

Our Board of Advisors, IAP members, and our State Engagement members also met during the Annual Meeting. They discussed the future of each respective program to achieve ITRC's new strategic priorities.
