Detailed History

AWWA was founded in 1881 by a group of water utility managers who recognized the need for a national forum to share best practices and develop standards to ensure safe and reliable water systems. In the early 20th century, AWWA began developing its own industry standards, which are now recognized as a primary source for the water community. AWWA has been a key partner with government agencies, like the U.S. EPA, in developing and promoting safe drinking water regulations.
