The Pacific Northwest Chapter was established in 2009 by members in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Formerly part of the Northwest Chapter of NASTT, the PNW Chapter was established to help focus the members on the specific trenchless concerns of the region. Membership growth occurring in Canada and the United States prompted the formation of a separate regional chapter. Since 2009 the PNW Chapter has diligently strived to promote the dissemination of information regarding trenchless technology and our chapter serves as an organization dedicated to trenchless technology education, training, and development.
Whether you choose to get involved to gain exposure, build your competencies, gain leadership experience or give back to the profession, you’ll find a meaningful way to participate in the NASTT community.
