Technical Activities Council

EWRI's technical activities feature nine councils and more than 100 active task committees working on publications such as manuals of practice and technical standards, as well as providing commentary on public policy. The featured councils address engineering issues such as planning and management, infrastructure, irrigation and drainage, watersheds, hydraulics and waterways, cross media (environmental issues), and standards development.
