The Municipal Service and Suppliers Association (formerly the Equipment and Contractors Association) was formed in 1995 to support the efforts of associations such as the Western Canada Water and Wastewater Association (WCW).
Membership in the association is comprised of persons interested in furthering the objectives of the association and consists of suppliers, manufacturers, consultants, and contractors and anyone whose application for admission as a member has received the approval of the board of directors.
A board of four directors manages the properties and business of the MSSA. The board generally meets once a year, usually at the annual WCW conference. The annual general membership meeting is also held at this time.
Some of our objectives include:
 |
To support the knowledge and advance of technology in the design, construction, operation, and management of water quality systems and facilities
|
|
To increase the knowledge and understanding of the earth’s water environment, and encourage and promote action necessary for it’s enhancement
|
|
To strengthen and build alliances with organizations incorporating members of all professions dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of water quality and resources
|
|
Serve the international community of water environment professionals
|
One of the more visible roles the MSSA has is sitting on committees which run the trade shows for the WCW, MWWA and SWWA conferences. As well as actively encouraging its’ members to display at these trade shows, the MSSA donates funds to these conferences as well as the AWWOA and NTWWA conferences.
An MSSA Director currently sits on the board of directors of the WCW.
