2016 NMC header
The National Water Quality Monitoring Council's 10th National Monitoring Conference will be held in Tampa, Florida, from May 2-6, 2016. This conference provides many opportunities for water stakeholders – federal, state, tribal and local water professionals, non-profits, academia, and volunteer citizen scientists – to network, develop new skills and partnerships, and exchange information.

Abstracts!
The NWQMC is requesting abstracts for oral presentations, posters, workshops, panels, short courses, and Round Table discussions that cover topics related to rivers and streams, lakes, wetlands, coastal waters and estuaries, groundwater, and drinking water. Abstracts are due September 18, 2015. For instructions for submitting abstracts and proposals, visit our conference website at: http://acwi.gov/monitoring/conference/2016/ 

Awards!
Do you know an individual or group whose efforts have made an outstanding contribution to the water quality monitoring world? If so, consider nominating them for one of the Council’s awards. These awards mean a lot because they come from your colleagues and peers.

There are three awards given at the Conference:

The Elizabeth Jester Fellows Award is given to an individual whose outstanding achievement, exemplary service, and distinguished leadership in water quality carry on in Elizabeth’s spirit of public service and commitment to environmental protection (http://acwi.gov/monitoring/conference/ejf_award.html).

The Vision Award is presented to a monitoring council or other group that has demonstrated extraordinary vision and cooperation in the field of water quality monitoring (http://acwi.gov/monitoring/conference/vision_award.html).

Finally, the Barry A. Long Award honors an individual who has demonstrated exceptional perseverance, positive spirit, and significant contributions to water resource protection (http://acwi.gov/monitoring/conference/bal_award.html).

Please consider submitting an abstract and nominating a colleague for an NWQMC award! For more information, visit http://acwi.gov/monitoring/conference/2016/. See you in Tampa!
