Building Bridges. Building Connections.

Join water resources leaders from across the country in the Quad Cities, August 25-27, for policy discussions, regional perspectives, project tours, and candid conversations about the decisions shaping America’s water resources future.

The NWC Annual Meeting brings together public agencies, nonfederal project sponsors, federal leaders, regional organizations, businesses, and water resources professionals from across sectors and mission areas.

Bringing the Water Resources Community Together

America’s water resources infrastructure serves many distinct but connected purposes, including navigation, flood risk management, water supply, hydropower, ecosystem restoration, recreation, community resilience, and emergency response. 

NWC brings together different sectors, regions, responsibilities, and perspectives to improve understanding, create dialogue, and strengthen the water resources community’s voice in federal decision-making. 

What NWC Does 

Advocate 

NWC represents member priorities before Congress, the administration, USACE, and other federal agencies, working to advance practical federal policies and sustained investment in water resources infrastructure. 

Connect 

NWC creates opportunities for members and federal decision-makers to build relationships, exchange information, understand differing priorities, and begin important conversations before decisions are final. 

Inform 

NWC helps members understand legislation, federal funding, agency actions, regulations, and emerging policy issues that affect their organizations, infrastructure, and communities. 

Why America’s Water Resources Infrastructure Matters 

Water resources infrastructure protects people and property, supports communities and industries, moves goods, provides water and energy, restores ecosystems, creates recreational opportunities, and strengthens the nation’s economy and security.
