Committees

Together with the President, Vice President, Second Vice President, and Treasurer, the Chairs of MEWEA's committees form the Association’s Executive Board.

The Chair of each Committee, or their designee, represents that Committee at the Association’s Monthly Executive Board Meeting, reporting to the Board on current activities and tasks. Chairs are responsible for developing the annual budget for their committee, recruiting new members, and periodically providing an article for the MEWEA Quarterly Newsletter.

In addition to these Committees, a number of non-voting representatives participate in Monthly Meetings, including:

  • A representative from the Maine Department of Environmental Protection
  • A representative of the Joint Environmental Training Coordinating Committee (JETCC)
  • A representative from the Maine Municipal Association
  • A representative from an affiliate group

Minutes from MEWEA meetings are posted online, and meetings are open to all members.
