The Virginia Section Newsletter is published quarterly to inform members, local and state officials, and elected representatives about water supply issues in Virginia. In addition to water-related feature articles, each issue of the Newsletter includes key Section news, such as: information on committee activities, special events such as seminars or training, scholarship announcements, member news, utility news, regulatory news, calls for papers, and updates on Section business.
