The Engineering Committee has opened the call for entries for the 2024 Excellence in Engineering Awards. These awards recognize excellence in engineering for water supply, treatment, and conveyance projects. Agencies, consultants, contractors, and water utilities who have recently or will be completing a water supply, treatment, or conveyance project for a water supply utility or agency in Idaho, Oregon or Washington may apply.
Categories. Projects may be submitted in the “Large Project” (>$5M construction), “Small Project” (<$5M construction) or “Planning” categories.
Streamlined Application Process. Electronic nominations will be limited to a 3-page project narrative providing a brief description of the project and why it demonstrates “Excellence in Engineering” with the opportunity to submit optional supporting material as applicants see fit.
To be considered for the 2024 Awards, the Committee will be looking for outstanding water-related engineering projects which have shown:
- Innovative technologies or approaches
- Difficult challenges that were overcome
- Sustainability (resource sustainability or cost effectiveness)
- System or project resiliency considerations (e.g. seismic, flood, system redundancy)
Please feel free to nominate one of your projects or someone else’s that you feel is deserving of an award. Additional information and the nomination form can be accessed using the link below. Deadline for submittals is February 17, 2024.
