CWWA mourns the loss of Bill Butler

The water world lost a giant with the passing of William ‘Bill’ Butler in February at the age of 69. A most respected water professional in New Brunswick, Bill was a true leader within his province and with the Atlantic Water and Wastewater Association. Bill represented the ACWWA on our board of directors for the Canadian Water and Wastewater Association (a role his son Mark now fills). Bill went on to serve as our national president from 1991 to 1993.

Throughout his career, Bill was recognized as a leader in our sector and received many awards including the ACWWA’s McNab Award, AWWA’s Fuller Award and was made an Honorary Member of AWWA. More importantly he was appreciated as a colleague, a mentor and a friend to many.
