One forum is reserved only for PW Directors and equivalents and anoth-er forum is set up for Superintendents and equivalents in the St. Louis Branch. Our goal is to have candid discussions and exchange ideas to the benefit of all our municipalities. All Superintendents and Public Works Directors in the STL Branch are invited to participate, but you must be registered as an APWA member with National in order to utilize the forums.
