Committee members are selected according to their areas of expertise
and experience in the drinking water industry. In addition, geographical
and ethnic diversity are considered. The UPRC meets in the Denver, Colo.,
area in early June to recommend funding of specific proposals to the
AwwaRF board of trustees. The board makes the final funding decisions at
their meeting in mid-June. AwwaRF covers travel, meal and lodging expenses
for the UPRC members to attend the meeting.
