The Gulf Coast Chapter,
based in Houston, Texas, is the local chapter of the Air & Waste Management
Association (AWMA), a non-profit, nonpartisan technical, scientific and
educational organization with more than 14,000 members in 65 countries.
Founded in 1907, AWMA 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.
AWMA attracts decision-makers from agencies, industry, business and the academic
and research communities. To serve its members, AWMA provides
opportunities for technological exchange, professional development, public
education and networking. Through these efforts AWMA will realize its
vision of becoming the premier international environmental organization
promoting global environmental responsibility.
