The resolution acknowledged Tagert for his special effort, work
experience and leadership, which has provided invaluable and consistent

resolution also acknowledged Tagert's earnest support of the PA AWWA
Water Utility Council, on which he served from 2006 to 2012, and his "…
inclusive style and ability to share his thoughts with all committee
members with whom he worked by unselfishly offering his knowledge and by
providing solutions to water suppliers, regulators and members of the
Pennsylvania AWWA Section through his understanding and common sense
approach to finding solutions for the benefit of all Water Utility
Council members."
In addition to his Water Utility Council role, Tagert has also served on
the Water/Wastewater Agency Response Network (WARN) Board since 2007 and
has supported the organization's Water for People Charity and the
Partnership for Safe Water, of which all of Aqua's surface water
treatment plants are a member.
"Today's resolution demonstrates that Steve's professionalism and
experience has been as invaluable to PA AWWA as it has been to Aqua,"
said Aqua America, Inc. Chairman and CEO Nicholas DeBenedictis. "I'm
proud to see Steve, a true and tenured water professional, be recognized
by his water industry peers for the years of service he has provided,
and continues to provide, to PA AWWA."

been with the company for more than 40 years. Aqua employs more than 600
