  1. Provide a forum for the exchange of information amongst NEWEA members on issues relating to industrial wastewater treatment, permitting, and compliance
  2. Act as a liaison and assist in the dissemination of information including proposed and promulgated rules, regulations, and policies that may be of interest to the industrial community
  3. Develop programs for stimulating membership and participation by industrial sector professionals within NEWEA
