The Holman Water Quality Stewardship Award was created by
the Hiwassee River Watershed Coalition in 2008 to honor the person or
group that has done the most to advance HRWC’s mission of facilitating
water quality improvements in the upper Hiwassee River watershed. The
award was presented for the first time on January 17, 2009 at the
inaugural Holman Water Quality Stewardship Award Banquet & Silent
Auction. The HRWC Board of Directors holds this event
annually to celebrate the relatively good water quality still being
measured in the Hiwassee River and its tributaries, while reminding us
of the critical need to act now to prevent further degradation.
The award is named for Bill Holman, who
is currently Director of State Policy at the Nicholas Institute for
Environmental Policy Solutions at Duke University. HRWC was honored to
have Mr. Holman deliver remarks at the inaugural Holman Water Quality
Stewardship Banquet, which he attended with his wife, Stephanie Bass. Click here to

The late James W. Dobson of Union County, Ga.
was the first Holman Water Quality Stewardship Award winner. One of
HRWC's own founding board members, Jim was selected from a slate of nine
excellent candidates to receive the award.
