WEF History -- WEF has guided technological development in water quality since 1928. Previously called the Federation of Sewage
Works Associations (1928), the Federation of Sewage and Industrial Wastes Associations (1950), and the Water Pollution Control
Federation (1960); the name was changed to the Water Environment Federation in 1991 to reflect an expanded focus of non-point
and point sources of pollution. Technical Publications -- WEF publishes more than 190 technical publications. These include
peer-reviewed Manuals of Practice (MOPs) covering a range of water quality topics on design, operation, and management issues
as well as Technical Practice Updates (TPUs). Developed under the auspices of WEF’s Technical Practice Committee by diverse
and balanced task forces using WEF’s established consensus procedures, TPUs have the goal of providing timely and accurate
information on emerging technical topics such as biosolids, collection systems, and microconstituents. Magazines and Journals:
• Water Environment & Technology (WE&T) • Water Environment Research (WER) • Water Practice • World Water & Environmental
Engineering Newsletters: • Water Environment Laboratory Solutions • Biosolids Technical Bulletin • Industrial Wastewater Technical
