Structure




OCSI has been structured as a loose, ad hoc, issue based umbrella type organization. It will function through email communication, with quarterly meetings. The Chair position will be held by Carl Bodimeade with the position of Vice-chair rotating through the five organizations on an annual basis. When an issue of common interest is identified, one organization will take the lead in developing a strategy.




The OCSI consists of:

Municipal Engineers Association (MEA)

Ontario Good Roads Association (OGRA)


Ontario Public Works Association (OPWA)

Ontario Water Works Association (OWWA)

Water Environment Association of Ontario (WEAO)
