The Excellence in Environmental Engineering® Competition exists to identify and reward the best of today's environmental engineering. Its criteria define what it takes to be the best in environmental engineering practice: a holistic environmental perspective, innovation, proven performance and customer satisfaction, and contribution to an improved quality of life and economic efficiency.

The E3 Competition, begun in 1989, is organized around the normal phases of development and implementation of environmental management projects and programs: research, planning, design, and operations and management. Each year, the entrants to the competition display a wide range of projects from innovative designs in waste treatment plants to new water treatment technologies to a one-of-a-kind Superfund site cleanup. At the same time, we see that today's engineers are becoming significantly more integrated in a team/project approach, allowing for greater flexibility and efficiency in project management. The application of new technologies combined with experienced environmental engineering practices make these projects the award winners they are.

Those chosen for prizes by an independent panel of distinguished experts, addresses the broad range of modern challenges inherent in providing life-nurturing services for humans and protection of the environment. They are but a small percentage of the many projects involving environmental engineers around the world. Nevertheless, their innovations and performance illustrate the essential role of environmental engineers in providing a healthy planet. These award winners testify to the genius of humankind and best exemplify the Excellence in Environmental Engineering® criteria.


GRAND PRIZE is awarded in each category.	SUPERIOR ACHIEVEMENT is awarded to the best entry.	HONOR AWARD is awarded to others deserving of commendation.
