A&WMA Gulf Coast Chapter

The Gulf Coast Chapter, based in Houston, Texas, is the local chapter of the Air & Waste Management Association (A&WMA), a non-profit, nonpartisan technical, scientific and educational organization with more than 14,000 members in 65 countries.  Founded in 1907, A&WMA provides a forum where all viewpoints of an environmental issue (technical, scientific, economic, social, political and risk assessment) receive consideration.  This worldwide network represents many disciplines:  physical and social sciences, health and medicine, engineering and law.  A&WMA attracts decision-makers from agencies, industry, business and the academic and research communities.

To serve its members, A&WMA provides opportunities for technological exchange, professional development, public education and networking.  Through these efforts A&WMA will realize its vision of becoming the premier international environmental organization promoting global environmental responsibility.
