NEIWPCC Today

NEIWPCC is currently comprised of more than 110 staff throughout the Northeast, with headquarters in Lowell, Massachusetts, a satellite office in South Portland, Maine, and locations within state agencies and program partners. Twenty active workgroups facilitate regional collaboration and state-federal engagement on topics ranging from source water protection to wetlands.

NEIWPCC provides administrative, program, and budgetary support to several place-based Program Partners: The Lake Champlain Basin Program, Long Island Sound Study, and the Hudson River Estuary Program and the Hudson River National Estuarine Research Reserve.

Current Water Program Priorities include: Clean Water Act Reauthorization; Contaminants of Emerging Concern/PFAS; Infrastructure and State Revolving Fund; Training and Certification; and, Watershed Planning and Waterbody Protection.

NEIWPCC’s work and role in the Northeast and national water industry is more vital than ever, as current problems demand action and new, complex challenges arise. Despite the changes over the decades, NEIWPCC remains committed to the same vision set 75 years ago: clean and sustainable water for all.
