Welcome to EWRI Kansas City Chapter
EWRI was Created in 1999, the Environmental & Water Resources Institute is a civil engineering specialty institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the country's oldest national engineering society. EWRI services are designed to complement ASCE's traditional civil engineering base and to attract new categories of members (non-civil engineer allied professionals) who seek to enhance their professional and technical development. EWRI was formed in keeping with the Strategic Plan of ASCE to provide improved and comprehensive products and services to a variety of engineering teams working in technical, educational, and professional areas. Former ASCE Technical Division enrollees (Environmental Engineering, Water Resources Engineering, Water Resources Planning and Management - as well as the Water and Environmental Standards Council), form EWRI's 22,000 person membership base. The former Divisions and Council have a long and successful record of performance. EWRI expands on the strong core of products and services originated by these members.

History of EWRI Greater Kansas City Chapter

The Greater Kansas City Chapter of the Environmental & Water Resources Institute (EWRI-GKCC) started in January 2004.  After six months of planning, setup of chapter regulations, financing, etc, EWRI-GKCC started off with successful bi-monthly luncheons with planning meetings in between.  Every year, the chapter is involved with seminar planning, including helping out with the Mid-America Regional Council Seminar on Stormwater BMPs.  See “Announcements” for the latest information on EWRI-GKCC winning this year’s national chapter award.  Even with this recognition, EWRI-GKCC hopes to expand its list of activities to include many people in the environmental and water resources profession.
