Ontario, Calif. — The International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO®) is seeking applicants to serve as technical experts on the Water Efficiency and Sanitation Standard (WE•Stand) Direct Potable Water Reuse Task Group.
The scope of the Direct Potable Water Reuse Task Group is to review all proposals pertaining to onsite wastewater treatment for direct potable water reuse (DPR) as published in the 2022 WE•Stand Report on Proposals (ROP) and develop public comments for technical committee consideration.
Task group members will participate via conference call or web meeting, provide their perspective on the code, and assist in drafting recommendations for action by the WE•Stand Technical Committee. Applicants are not required to be members of the WE•Stand Technical Committee.
