President’s Message
The Year in Review Paving the Way for FWEA’s Future Kart Vaith, P.E., BCEE, FWEA President
As the year began, we realized that we needed to revisit our vision, mission, and goals to continue to
move the Association forward and make some adjustments with the following priorities:
1. Improve Gen X and Gen Y participation
2. Increase Utility participation
3. Allow more volunteers to plan and deliver events with less effort with a view towards reducing
the time commitment for all volunteers
The process that we followed started with a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT)
analysis. We then used the balanced scorecard process to craft our vision, mission, and to develop a
balanced set of goals that meet all our vision and mission. From these goals, we developed objectives,
metrics, and tactics for the future. This new strategic plan (also called strategy 2020) is now available
on our website.
Our former and current vision and mission statements are summarized as follows:
Former Vision Statement: A Clean Water Environment for Florida’s Future Generations
Current Vision Statement: A Clean and Sustainable Water Environment for Florida’s Future
Generations
Former Mission Statement: Preserve and Enhance Florida’s Water Environment by Supporting and
Uniting Water Quality Professionals through Public Education, Professional Development, and
Promotion of Sound Science-based Public Policy.
Current Mission Statement: The Florida Water Environment Association (FWEA), a leading non-profit
organization, will promote a clean and sustainable water environment by:
• Supporting and uniting our members and the public through Public Awareness,
• Providing Professional Development of our members,
• Promoting Sound Science-based Public Policy, and
• Maintaining a Strong Organization.
Also, for the first time in FWEA’s history, we are not only setting goals and objectives but are also
establishing metrics that allow us to measure our progress towards our goals. The goals, objectives,
tactics, metrics, and targets that are summarized in the attached table were developed to support and
advance our mission.
While the FWEA Board of Directors was busy making plans for the future, FWEA business went on as
usual thanks to the outstanding leadership of our committee and chapter chairs and support from
numerous volunteer members. This past year about 50 local chapter and committee events were
attended by many hundreds of our members. Events ranged from skeet shooting and golf tournaments
for fundraising to technical seminars for professional development and design competitions for our
student members. Our fiscal health is sound with over 6 months of operating income in our bank
account. As a result, we are increasing the availability of paid staff to support the development and
delivery of events all with the purpose of reducing the workload for our volunteers while delivering
more and better quality events.
We think the future for FWEA will include:
• More smaller events for training, fundraising, networking
• Smaller events geared to serving social subgroups within FWEA and their favored activities
• Increased support to allow events to be planned and delivered easily and with less effort from
volunteers
• Focused volunteer time with a view towards encouraging event attendance
The results will inevitably include increased Gen X, Gen Y and Utility participation while meeting goals
and objectives that are consistent with our vision and mission.
On behalf of the FWEA Board of Directors and membership, I want to thank Pat Karney, our former
executive director for many years of selfless and tireless service to FWEA and our members.
You are FWEA; our leaders, volunteers and event attendees! I firmly believe that we have a great
future ahead of us. I sincerely hope you will make the time to volunteer or attend a local FWEA event
in your area soon; and once you do, you like me, will be drawn into the Association forever!
In conclusion, I want to thank you all for your support through the most difficult year that I have had
personally.

2015 2015 2015 2015 WEFWEFWEFWEF Delegate ReportDelegate ReportDelegate ReportDelegate Report Paul Pinault, P.E. and John A. Giachino, DBIA
The WEF House of Delegates serves as the deliberative and representational body of WEF and as an
advisory group to the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees, House of Delegates, and WEF
Committees are committed to advancing WEF’s mission to provide bold leadership, champion
innovation, connect water professionals, and leverage knowledge to support clean and safe water
worldwide.
Delegate responsibilities Include:
• Advise the Board on strategic direction and policies and initiatives of the Federation.
• Review the budget report from the Board and provide comments as to consistency with
Strategic Plan and other initiatives.
• Confirm nominations for the Board of Trustees and Delegates at Large Elect Officers of the
Federation.
• Remove Trustees or Officers if necessary.
WEF Delegate Activities
The activities that the Florida Delegates participated in over the past year are as follows:
• Attended all FWEA Executive Board meetings.
• Attended FWEA 2015 Leadership Conference.
• Attended WEFTEC 2014 in New Orleans, LA. Participated in House of Delegates (HOD) meetings.
• Participating in 2015 HOD Leadership Development Workgroup.
• Co-chairing the 2015 HOD MA Financial Stability Workgroup.
• Attended WEFMAX in Virginia Beach, VA.
Leadership Development Workgroup General Information
This workgroup will assess MA Leadership training needs through surveys and one/one contact with MA
Leadership to include MA officers, delegates, committee chairs and where applicable, staff. This work
group will:
1.) Evaluate the materials and training currently available on the WEF Website in the MA Resources
Center, WEFMAX Library and HOD archives that target leadership development to determine its
relevance. The relevance will not be limited to individual leadership development but include
Member Association sustainability and the training needs of MA Boards and Executive
Committees and
2.) Work towards targeting the main areas for training. This is expected to ultimately result in the
development of tools including written guidance documents and PowerPoint presentations that
may be used in peer to peer training sessions at future WEFTEC Leadership Day, WEFMAX
meetings, MA Leadership Retreats and MA Planning Sessions. Another possible outcome is to
develop” Delegate Led” webcasts, which may be presented as part of the WEF MA Leader
Education Program.
MA Financial Stability Workgroup General Information
This workgroup is completing the work started by the 2012-2013 MA Sustainability Workgroup and is
concentrating on ways MAs can become more financially sustainable and secure. Last year key policies
were identified and drafted. The workgroup is developing additional policies and providing a
knowledge-link to MAs on additional policies and best practices for revenue generation to provide for
more financially sustainable MAs. This workgroup has two sub workgroups.
1.) Policies: Develop the generic policies, procedures and best practices that will be posted to the
WEFCOM site for MAs to access. The SWG now has examples for the initial targeted policies:
Board Expenses, Physical Property Controls, Surplus Property Controls and Credit Card Use.
2.) Revenue: Develop example revenue generation programs and place on the WEFCOM site for a
database for MAs. The WG reviewed the survey from last year’s WG. The SWG decided to seek
further input at WEFMAXs. The SWG has developed a 5-10 minute presentation which will be
given at every WEFMAX this year to stimulate discussion.
