AGC Chapters Host Liquid Assets Events

Contractors Association of West Virginia Hosts Governor "We've got a lot of work to do and we're getting ready to do it," Governor Joe Manchin told CAWV members and legislators.  The governor was the keynote speaker at a March 12 legislative reception sponsored by the Contractors Association of West Virginia and WV American Water Company.  Nearly 100 legislators, government officials and CAWV members attended the function, which was covered by the local media. Following the Governor's remarks, attendees viewed an overview of the 90-minute documentary, Liquid Assets: The Story of Our Water Infrastructure, and joined local water officials for a lively discussion. Panelists explored the value and cost of water and wastewater services, the unique requirements presented by West Virginia's terrain and the amount of unserved state residents.
