ALAN HARRIS – HAMLET OF FORT LIARD

Fort Liard Deputy Mayor Eva Hope presents Alan Harris with the Al Reimer Award.

Iam honoured and feel very privileged to have received the nomination and the award in the memory of Al Reimer. In fact, knowing my name was put forward by my fellow NTWWA board members is an honour unto itself.

I would like to thank my employer, the Hamlet of Fort Liard, for their trust and direction in having involved me in this field of work. The training and knowledge I have received over the years has led to my success in the water and wastewater field of operations. Working with the great people I do, their hard work in the provision of municipal services in my own community, and other communities of the NWT, has also, I believe, contributed to my success. The water and wastewater services that we are all involved with are instrumental to the strength and health of everyone around us. Thank you all. S
