PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

David Hinshaw, CWP

It is with deep gratitude and a sense of purpose that I begin my term as President of the Texas Water Utilities Association (TWUA). For over a century, TWUA has been the training ground and professional home for water and wastewater operators, managers, laboratory personnel, engineers, and support staff across Texas. It is an honor to serve you—the men and women who protect public health and the environment by providing safe drinking water and responsible wastewater treatment every day.

My Journey in Water & Wastewater

My path into the industry began in 1997 at the City of Weatherford, working at an 8-MGD package surface water plant. Like many of you, I started with more questions than answers, but I was surrounded by mentors who believed in developing people. My employers supported my license progression, my attendance at training, and my involvement with TWUA. Those early investments shaped my career and my commitment to lifelong learning.

In 2005, I moved to Fort Worth, where I had the privilege of working at all five of their water treatment plants. Each facility offered new challenges and opportunities to grow technically and as a leader. In 2019, I joined the City of Mansfield as Treatment Plant Manager. Today, we operate a 45-MGD conventional and microfiltration surface water plant and are in the midst of an expansion to 62-MGD. These experiences have strengthened my conviction that our profession—both water and wastewater—is critical to public health, environmental stewardship, and quality of life in our communities.

Along the way, I earned my Class A Water Operator license after completing my formal education in science with a Bachelor of Science in Biology (specializing in Cellular Physiology) and a second major in Chemistry. This blend of practical field experience and academic training informs how I approach problems, build teams, and develop future operators.

My Walk of Faith

I also want to share something even more foundational to who I am. In 1975, I chose Jesus as my Salvation. I am a disciple who has trusted Jesus by faith, is following and being transformed by Him, and is on mission to lead others to do the same. My faith guides my values and my approach to leadership—seeking to serve rather than to be served, to listen before I speak, and to encourage others to reach their full potential. While our association is professionally focused and welcomes people from every background, my own journey would be incomplete without acknowledging the faith that has shaped my character and purpose.

Service Within TWUA

From the start of my career, TWUA has been more than just a training provider—it has been a community for water and wastewater professionals. I began in the Twin Basins District, eventually serving as Vice President before moving to the North Central Texas District. In 2017, I was elected as the Member at Large for the North Central Texas Regional School and later served as Chairman during the 75th Annual School in 2022. Today, I continue to serve as the Robert McMillion Endowment Fund Representative for the region. This is the beginning of my third year on the Management Committee, and I now have the privilege of serving as your President.

These roles have given me a front-row seat to TWUA’s strengths—our people, our technical training, and our tradition of volunteerism. They have also shown me where we can improve and how much opportunity we have to expand our impact across both the water and wastewater sectors.

Service Outside TWUA

My heart for service extends beyond the workplace and the association. I serve as a deacon at my church and have had the joy of teaching classes for every age group—from fouryear-olds to young single adults—as well as leading financial classes that help families steward their resources wisely.

I also volunteer with Texans On Mission for Disaster Relief and with Water Impact Ministries. Through Disaster Relief, I’ve been able to provide practical help during times of tragedy—serving hot, nutritious meals, offering access to showers and laundry services, and working as part of a chainsaw team to move debris and damaged trees from homes. We clean out and repair homes damaged by floods and fire. Perhaps most importantly, we pray with and encourage survivors, offering hope for better days after the storm. These experiences remind me daily of the power of hands-on service and compassion, and they continually sharpen my perspective on what it means to be a servant-leader.

My Vision for TWUA

As I step into this role, my vision for TWUA is shaped by both my personal journey and the collective needs I see across our industry. Three themes stand out:

1. Communication. We must communicate with each other better and more frequently. That means more transparency from leadership, more opportunities for two-way dialogue, and more timely updates about training, certification, and advocacy—whether you work in water, wastewater, or both. I encourage you to reach out to me directly with your ideas and concerns. Your voice matters.

2. Engagement. We need to be more involved in our association and our communities. TWUA thrives when members not only attend training but also volunteer, mentor, and participate in local and regional events. Likewise, our communities thrive when we show up— not just as water and wastewater professionals but as neighbors, parents, and civic leaders. Our first mission field is at home: our families, our communities, our schools, our workplaces, and all our areas of influence.

3. Balancing Priorities. For me, the order is clear: God, Family, and Profession. When we keep those priorities aligned, we are healthier, more grounded, and more effective in our work. As an association, we can support each other not just in technical competence but also in personal well-being and leadership development.

These goals are not lofty ideals; they are practical steps we can take to strengthen TWUA, elevate our profession, and better serve Texas communities.

A Personal Note

Outside of work and TWUA, I am married with three wonderful daughters who keep life full and joyful. I love to be outside doing just about anything. In my younger days, I enjoyed technical rock climbing and frozen waterfall climbing. Today, I still seek adventure—just at a different pace. I throw on an ultralight backpack and go on section hikes. My current goal is to hike the John Muir Trail southbound from Yosemite to Mount Whitney, a 223-mile trek planned for August 2026. Long hikes remind me of our profession: the importance of preparation, teamwork, perseverance, and appreciating the journey as much as the destination.

An Invitation to You

As your President, it is my desire to meet as many of you as I can this year and hear your story and your vision for TWUA. Don’t be afraid to come say hi at conferences, regional schools, or district meetings. Drop me a line, send an email, or share your ideas on how TWUA can serve you better. You are important to me and to the success of TWUA.

We have an exciting year ahead. Together, we can build on our strong legacy and move TWUA forward with renewed energy and purpose. Let’s learn from each other, support one another, and inspire the next generation of water and wastewater professionals.

Thank you for the trust you have placed in me. I look forward to serving you and working alongside you to make this our best year yet.

Thank you.

Respectfully, David

by Russell Hamilton, TWUA Executive Director

Father, we acknowledge you and bow our heads in respect as we humbly say thank You, and proclaim that You are the creator. We take comfort in knowing that You remain in charge and in control of life as we understand it. We need You, and we welcome You, in all we do. We come into Your presence seeking Your grace, calm, guidance, and forgiveness. Father, we pray for Your mercy, and we ask that You guide, direct, protect, and bless TWUA and its members. Father, thank you as we offer praise in the name of Jesus. Amen

The drought remains a concern in parts of Texas. While some areas are experiencing rain, many watersheds still remain dry. In West Texas, Lake Spence is at 13.7 % (+ 0.7 9%), White River is at 34.4% (- 0.7%), and in the Panhandle, Lake Meredith is at 48.3% (+ 0.2%). Greenbelt is at 8.7 % (- 0.2%). For a full view of current lake levels, visit waterdatafortexas. org. For some, the drought has never truly ended.

For those who prefer in-person training, our next TWUA regional event is scheduled for November 4th, 2025, in Lubbock. Come join the Lubbock board and other like-minded individuals in Lubbock.

The 107th Annual School was recently held in Waco. As the Central Office unpacks and sorts through the aftermath of the event, we are happy to share that it was a success. The feedback received was positive, and attendees appeared satisfied with the flow of the event. If you missed this year's event in 2025, we invite you to join us in Waco in 2026 for the association’s 108th Annual School. TWUA has secured dates in Waco for 2026 and 2027. It was brought to our attention that WEFTEC 2026 will be in New Orleans, and its dates conflict with TWUA 2026. We (Norma) exhausted the possible Hotel/Convention dates, and July 27 – 30, 2026 appears to be the best viable dates for 2026. The

best option for 2027 is July 27 – 29, 2027. The July dates could impact attendance, because they are the week before TCEQ Drinking Water, but there is not much wiggle room.

Resiliency – Starting in July 2025, TWUA will offer this training module every other week. There are a total of six resiliency modules. The overview we currently provide is one. The remaining five modules will be available soon and will help fulfill TCEQ requirements. To simplify, one of the other five modules must be completed for each license renewal. The modules can only be used once per license renewal cycle. If you take more than one module in a 3-year license cycle, you will still need two hours of something like NIMS training during each license renewal cycle.

While TWUA has the five additional modules, we are strongly considering releasing one additional Resiliency module every 3 years. For more information, check this link - https://www.tceq.texas.gov/downloads/licensing/ occupational/publications/rg-637-resiliency-guidance.pdf

The Story Goes Something Like This –

The time was 1931, and America was just beginning to come out of the Great Depression.

There was a humble farmer (John James) who was blessed to have a small family potato farm. By some standards, John and his family were blessed because they survived the Depression era and still owned their farm, but this farmer and his family were struggling to maintain it.

Rainfall remained scarce, and the heat was oppressive. The end of the planting season was a few weeks away. John had planted his crop twice already this year, but there simply wasn't enough moisture in the soil to sprout the plants.

John was a Christ believer and follower. Believing in the power of prayer, he invited his fellow believers to come to

his farm and join a prayer meeting where they could pray for one another and ask God for His blessings and to open the skies with abundant rainfall.

There were maybe 10 neighbors, the preacher, and their families. The pastor began by saying that regardless of how bleak things currently look, if you truly believe, give God the praise, and keep a positive attitude, prayers will be answered.

One of the neighbors, with desperation in his voice, said that he had finally reached his limit. He had stopped by on his way to the bank to surrender his farm because his debts were overwhelming, and the drought along with the oppressive heat offered no hope.

That night, John went outside and looked up at the stars. He lifted his arms and prayed, "You are a mighty God, your blessing and favor have no limits. Father, if my family and I are to thrive during this trying time, it will be because of You and Your mercies. I pray in the name of Jesus for Your guidance and protection. And I ask You to speak to me and let me know Your plan."

That night, he envisioned a vivid image of healthy crops and potato plants thriving in abundance. John dreamed of rain despite the dry conditions.

The next day, John and his family planted the last of the seed potatoes. John’s neighbors mocked him and laughed at the effort required to plant them in the arid soil.

John finished his work and stored his equipment in the barn. He enjoyed a nice meal with his family, then read his Bible. After taking a shower, he went to bed. John dreamed of a slow, soaking rain. He saw water standing in the rows between the plants and dreamed of a harvest so bountiful that he would have plenty to share with those in need.

John also dreamed of irrigation wells and using these wells to water crops during times when rainfall was scarce. He

dreamed of barns overflowing with abundance.

Long before daylight the next morning, John and his supportive wife Becky sat on the front porch, enjoying coffee in the cool, refreshing air. When it was light enough, John and Becky could see the fields where water was standing. Just when they thought it couldn't get any better, cool drops of rain started falling again.

John took Becky’s hand and bowed his head. Thank you, God; this blessing is definitely from You.

In the weeks and months to come, John’s fields changed. The dry, cracked earth became fertile soil.

John was now researching the costs and process for irrigation wells.

BALANCING SECURITY EFFICIENCY AND EFFECTIVENESS

By Megan Pleasant, GovLoop

Confronting a growing number of alerts and tighter resources, government agencies must evaluate their existing security deployments in endpoint prevention, detection, and response for opportunities to reduce costs and leverage the right technology for more efficient endpoint security.

Let’s explore a few best practices that can drive new levels of security efficiency in endpoint security from Paul Miller, Security Strategist in Broadcom’s Enterprise Security Group.

Visibility into security environment: Visibility helps to both empower analysts and ease their workload. “Visibility gives you near real-time, or in some cases, predictive capabilities. That’s how you do threat detection and response and mitigate context switching for an analyst, reducing cognitive fatigue,” Miller explained.

Use automation to speed up workflows: Detection and response solutions often use automation to improve analyst efficiency — automating tasks that are traditionally laborintensive and time-consuming. Automation and machine

learning can look for anomalous patterns, flagging likely malicious intent and enabling analysts to mitigate threats.

Implement a robust application control solution: The right application control solution can help drive more efficient protection. When policies are enforced to ensure that only trusted applications can run, the solution can help block malware, tame shadow IT, and keep unauthorized software out of play. “With application control, you’re preemptively reducing the risk of a threat actor executing code in your environment,” Miller said.

From June 16 to 20, employers and workers across the country have the opportunity to reinforce their commitment to safety by joining the 2025 Trench Safety Stand-Down. This national event hosted by the National Utility Contractors Association in partnership with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, raises awareness to help prevent injuries and fatalities caused by trench cave-ins.

Trenching and excavating remain among the most hazardous construction operations. Between 2011 and 2021, the number of workers lost to trench collapses rose by more than 46%. These aren’t just statistics – they represent the lives and families of real people who were tragically impacted by preventable incidents. In 2023, violations of OSHA’s excavation standards accounted for 4% of all constructionrelated citations and 9% of the total penalties issued

That’s why NUCA and six other industry groups entered into a national alliance, Partners for Safe Trenching and Excavation Operations The alliance’s primary goal is to raise awareness of trenching and excavation hazards through outreach and communication. NUCA’s Trench Safety Stand Down is just one example of the important work this alliance helps provide to the American worker and the employers for whom they work to ensure a safe and healthy workplace.

TRENCH SAFETY STARTS WITH YOU

By Bryant Seymour, OSHA

worker safety. Whether it’s dedicating time for toolbox talks, reviewing safety procedures or emphasizing best practices, your involvement sends a clear message: safety comes first.

OSHA's trenching and excavation webpage offers resources on trenching hazards and solutions, including a safety video. Employers can also benefit from our National Emphasis Program to get help in complying with our trenching and excavation requirements. OSHA standards require that trenches and protective systems be inspected daily and as conditions change, by a competent person, before work begins. Compliance assistance resources can also be found on the alliance partners' webpage.

By proactively engaging with employees and ensuring trenching operations are done safely, employers can reduce workers’ exposure to cave-ins, falling loads, hazardous atmospheres and mobile equipment hazards. When employers prioritize safety, workers can go home safely at the end of the day.

We encourage everyone to make the 2025 Trench Safety Stand-Down more than a weeklong event – make it part of your safety culture today and all year round.

NOTICE:

Important Update on License Renewals

House Bill 1237 passed during the 89th Texas Legislative Session and became effective September 1, 2025. For license/registration holders that expire on or after September 1, 2025, this bill allows up to 180 days after the expiration date of the license to submit a renewal application, with additional fees. Note that this renewal window does not extend the deadline to complete all required continuing education hours before the expiration date of the license.

How to Renew Your License:

• You may submit your renewal application up to 90 days prior to the expiration date of your license but no more than 30 days after the expiration date, for licenses that expire before September 1, 2025.

• A renewal notice will be mailed, at least 60 days prior to the expiration date, to the most recent address TCEQ has on file. As an additional courtesy, TCEQ may email you a renewal notice to the email address(es) on file.

Beginning September 1, 2025, for license or registration holders that expire on or after September 1, 2025, you may submit a renewal application up to 180 days after the expiration date of your license.

Only one renewal application may be submitted after the license or registration expires, and any application submitted more than 180 days after the expiration date, will not be accepted, for any reason. Additional fees will apply if renewal application is submitted after the expiration date of the license

• 1–90 days after expiration: Renewal applications will be accepted with a late fee equal to 1.5 times the normal renewal fee.

• 91–180 days after expiration: Renewal applications will be accepted with a late fee equal to 2 times the normal renewal fee.

• Effective September 1, 2025, a person who has applied for renewal of the license or registration, and is expired for 90 days or less, may continue to engage in activities that require a license or registration after the expiration of the license or registration until the license or registration is renewed or denied. If you have not submitted a renewal application and fee, or you are more than 90 days past your expiration date, you may not engage in activities that require a license or registration.

• A person whose license or registration has been expired for at least 180 days, MAY NOT renew the license or registration. The person may obtain a new license or registration by complying with all the requirements and procedures, including the examination requirements, for obtaining an original license or registration.

• Make sure you are eligible:

• Check the renewal requirements for your license type.

• Continuing education must be completed between the effective date and expiration date of the license.

• Failure to complete required CE hours by the license expiration date will result in the denial of the renewal application, regardless of when it is submitted during the 180-day grace period.

• Check your current continuing education credits by finding your license information on the TCEQ Licensing Search page

IN A NUTSHELL – This change/addition in TCEQ Rules provides an “Administrative” window for those who, for whatever reason, were unable to comply with the established timeline but have met all the renewal stipulations - except physically submitting the paperwork and paying the renewal fees.

continued on next page...

...continued from previous page

This rule change DOES NOT PROVIDE an extended window of time to complete continuing education. In Simple terms, there is now a method for those who legitimately missed the license application renewal window. If you are short on continuing education as stipulated in the licensing process, you will need to contact TCEQ when the license expires.

It is highly recommended that you keep your contact information up to date with TCEQ. If you have changed employers, phone numbers, or mailing addresses and have not updated this information with TCEQ, it will be problematic for TCEQ to contact or communicate with you.

When you update contact information with TCEQ, please remember to do the same with TWUA.

Fingerprinting

The fingerprinting subscription is TCEQ’s preferred method of receiving criminal history information and will result in a more expeditious review of your application. There is a one-time fee for fingerprinting, but once subscribed you will not need to repay the fee or get fingerprinted again, if you have a current, valid occupational license with TCEQ.

Please note that the fingerprinting subscription is agencyspecific; background checks conducted for any other agency or purpose are not accepted, as fingerprint data cannot be shared between State Agencies.

If you are already subscribed to fingerprinting for an active TCEQ license, you will need to indicate that on your application, but you will not need to get fingerprinted again during any subsequent renewals or if applying for other new TCEQ licenses.

Steps to Submit Fingerprints

Step 1. Submit an Application

• Whether you are applying for a new license or to

renew an existing license, you will first need to submit an application and indicate you will be using the fingerprinting subscription.

• Complete the online Criminal Conviction Notification form if you are submitting an electronic renewal application.

• If you need to mail in a paper renewal application, you also need to complete the downloadable Criminal Conviction Notfication Form.

• Do not schedule your fingerprinting appointment until you have submitted your application.

Step 2. Schedule Your Fingerprinting Appointment

• Once you’ve submitted your application, go to https:// uenroll.identogo.com/workflows/11G4HV to schedule your appointment, as soon as possible.

• Click “Schedule or Manage Appointment” and provide the required information.

• Fingerprinting locations are widely available across the state. You will be able to search for the location nearest to you.

Step 3. Get Fingerprinted

• Bring your valid photo ID to your appointment.

• Bring the required payment to your appointment IdentoGO accepts credit cards, business checks, money orders, but does not accept personal checks or cash. Please note this fee is collected by IndentoGO and is separate from the application fee collected by TCEQ.

• Please keep your receipt.

• IdentoGO will submit your digital fingerprints to the Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) electronically. The results will automatically be shared with TCEQ.

Step 4. Notify TCEQ

• Email licenses@tceq.texas.gov to let us know you completed the fingerprinting to continue with the review of your application. If your application is reviewed prior to getting your fingerprints done, you will receive a deficiency letter. You can clear that deficiency by letting us know that you have completed your fingerprinting process.

• Please include your name and the date you were fingerprinted on the email.

Step 5. Criminal History Review

• TCEQ will review your criminal history to determine if you are eligible for a license.

•

• If the criminal history review shows that you do not have a criminal history or that there are no grounds for denying the application and all other requirements for the license have been met, TCEQ will complete processing your application. For new licenses, you will be eligible to take the exam and for renewals, your license will be issued.

• The TCEQ may request additional information if there are any convictions or deferred adjudications that may make you ineligible for a license.

• If the TCEQ determines that there are grounds for denying your application for a license, the TCEQ will notify you in writing.

Alternative to Fingerprinting

• If you are unable to get fingerprinted, as an alternative, you may provide your criminal history by submitting the Criminal History Online Form or the Downloadable Criminal History Notification Form, depending on the type of application.

• Using this option to provide criminal history information, instead of fingerprinting, may result in increased processing time.

• Make sure to include ALL arrests, convictions, and deferred adjudications above a Class C Misdemeanor. There is no time limit on the convictions and arrests that must be reported.

• A conviction has occurred any time that you received a court ruling of "Convicted" or "Deferred Adjudication" for an offense of which you were charged.

License/Registrations Renewals

If renewing online, you may provide your criminal history by completing the Criminal History Online Form, with your online application.

If renewing by mail, you may provide your criminal history by using the Downloadable Criminal History Notification Form and mail it in with your completed application.

If you are responding to a renewal deficiency letter, you must contact the staff member that issued the letter to inform him/her that you have submitted the form.

New Licenses/Registrations

You may provide your criminal history within the Occupational Licensing Electronic Application (OLEA). If you are not using OLEA, or if OLEA doesn't yet include the registration you are applying for, you can use the Downloadable Criminal History Notification Form and mail it in with your completed application.

If you are responding to a new license or registration deficiency letter, you must contact the staff member that issued the letter to inform him/her that you have submitted the form.

Evil and Hate

In times when evil and hate are exposed each day, Friendships and families are often betrayed. When the actions of others bring sorrow and fear, Comfort is promised when God is kept near.

Show kindness in words and compassion in deeds, Offer hope to the broken, attend to their needs.

A gentle word, a hand when others ignore, It may seem small, yet the world needs more.

Resorting to violence, motivated by others, Often leads to conflict, and pitting brother against brother.

Pause before speaking that hateful word, A humble “I’m sorry” is better heard.

The teaching from Jesus, is to turn the other cheek. This concept requires strength, and not for the weak. Though some will bend, most only so far, When pressed to their limits, oh how they’ll spar.

Teach those you love not what to think, but to ask why. Let compassion rise, allow anger to die.

In all your actions, let mercy take its place,

Despite all the darkness, Jesus already won the race.

Evil divides, but love prevailsThrough Christ alone, hope never fails.
