SUMMARY:2026 Indiana Water Resources Assn Symposium\, Madison\, IN
DESCRIPTION:More info / register \nThe IWRA would like to invite you to the 45th Annual Indiana Water Resources Association Symposium\, June 9–11\, 2026\, at the Clifty Inn in Clifty Falls State Park\, Madison\, Indiana. For more than four decades\, this symposium has served as a cornerstone for collaboration and knowledge exchange among water resource professionals across Indiana and beyond. \nThis year’s sessions will explore diverse topics that support informed decision-making for the future of water resource management. In keeping with IWRA’s mission\, the program will feature a wide range of presentations designed to foster open communication and strengthen connections within our water resources community. \nA core goal of IWRA is to foster communication and the exchange of water‑resource information within Indiana and throughout the region. We encourage you to use our conferences as an opportunity to share your work in a welcoming\, informal setting. Because many members do not regularly attend national meetings\, presentations previously given at regional or national conferences are welcomed. \nThe agenda will be updated as information becomes available. View the agenda.
