Pacific Northwest Waterways Association
Founded in 1934, PNWA has spent over 75 years successfully advocating for federal funding of our region's navigation projects and public policy to improve the economic efficiency and environmental sustainability of the Pacific Northwest. We continue to collaborate with the U.S. Congress, federal agencies and regional leaders on policies related to transportation, energy, trade and environmental issues on behalf of ports, public utilities, consultant firms, businesses and tourism.
