At its annual conference in May 2010 the British Columbia Water & Waste Association awarded the inaugural Leadership in Water Sustainability Award. This award recognizes individuals who are demonstrating an overall commitment to water sustainability in their governance, administration, operations, education, culture and outreach.

Tim Pringle, Director of Special Programs of the Real Estate Foundation, was runner-up for the award because of his substantial contributions to the Water Sustainability Committee that is working to advance the Water Sustainability Action Plan for British Columbia since 2003.
