2024 Honoree: Bill Bower
Senior Project Manager, Atwell, LLC
WSA is thrilled to honor Bill Bower, environmental engineer and newly certified Watershed Steward as the 2024 Consortium Member of the Year.
WSA’s Consortium of Support Professionals extend and expand the impact of WSA’s training by providing expertise and guidance to Stewards as they develop and execute projects. Bill has done just that and more!
As a professional engineer, professional land surveyor and pervious concrete technician who has worked on many local stormwater projects, Bill brings timely, practical, in the trenches examples of projects - both successful ones, and projects gone wrong. Bill lends his professional expertise to help improve, inform and instruct the Stormwater Success Course, a short course for HOA leaders and property managers to improve maintenance of stormwater BMPs, and provides continuing education for Stewards on soils, erosion and non-plant solutions for residential stormwater problems. As a member of WSA’s Watershed Steward Class 15, Bill consistently connected class topics to real world examples and answered the many Steward questions, providing insights, resources and illustrations to make stewardship topics come alive. Bill also helps Stewards from Class 15 and beyond to develop projects, attending site visits, reviewing documents and brainstorming solutions for difficult situations.
Bill truly embodies the critical partnership between the professional restoration community and engaged community leaders to make change in the landscape. Clearly Bill has had an impact on our Stewards, and that is why they voted him Consortium Member of the year!
Congratulations Bill and Thank you!
