Nevada Water Resources Association (NWRA)

In 1944, a small group of water professionals came together to address water issues related to agriculture and groundwater in Nevada. Today, 80 years later, what began as a small group addressing a narrow scope of water issues, has transformed into NWRA, an association of multi-disciplinary professionals committed to understanding, developing, conserving, and protecting Nevada’s water resources. NWRA has an annual membership of four hundred and fifty (450) professional members. It is a non-profit organization directed by a Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees is comprised of 17 professionals with varying credentials, knowledge and expertise in water issues in Nevada. Board members serve on a voluntary basis and are selected from each district in the state. The Board also includes several non-voting student members who volunteer to keep the Board connected with student needs and interests.
