Award- L.L. HEDGEPETH AWARD

  • Shall be a person who operates, supervises operation of, or is directly responsible for the operation of an industrial wastewater treatment plant.
  • Shall be the person judged “doing the most with what he has”.
  • Shall have shown outstanding initiative in such fields as promotion of good public relations, advancement of the art and knowledge of industrial pretreatment by participation in conferences, publication of papers or articles and cooperation with regulatory agencies.
     
Criteria shall include:
  • Performance of the pretreatment system or program for which the individual is responsible.
  • Technical expertise.
  • Complexity of the pretreatment system or program.
  • Civic and professional involvement of the individual outside of his/her specific program.
  • The individual’s commitment to the job.
     
The winner of the FWEA L.L. Hedgepeth Award will receive an award plaque during the Awards Luncheon at the Florida Water Resources Conference. Winners will be notified prior to the conference in time to make preparations for a representative to attend the awards luncheon. Winners must identify who will be receiving the award.
