 Hurricane Sandy pummeled the northeastern United States Oct. 29–30. High winds and rain caused widespread power outages and flooding; hardest hit were New York City and parts of New Jersey. As citizens took shelter, wastewater treatment facilities continued to operate as long as possible. The Water Environment Federation (Alexandria, Va.) mobilized its network of members and Member Associations to provide information, resources, and assistance to affected facilities.
Water Environment Federation (WEF; Alexandria, Va.) Past President James H. Clark has added WEF Honorary Membership to a long list of achievements.

 The Water Environment Federation (WEF; Alexandria, Va.) has developed a new way to learn at its annual Technical Exhibition and Conference (WEFTEC®) that blends technical programming with the exhibition experience.
