Publications Committees
The Air & Waste Management Association (A&WMA) publishes two monthly publications -- the Journal of the Air & Waste Management Association (JA&WMA), one of the oldest continuously published, peer-reviewed, technical environmental journals in the world, and EM Magazine, the magazine for environmental managers; and one quarterly publication EM Plus. Digital versions of JA&WMA and EM Magazine are available to all current members. EM Plus is mailed to current members residing in the United States and Canada.
Get Involved in A&WMA Publications through our various Publications Committees:
The EM Editorial Advisory Committee (EAC) is a standing subcommittee of the Publications Committee. The EAC provides technical and policy advice and guidance to EM’s Managing Editor. The primary duties of EAC members are to identify topics of interest, solicit articles, and review articles to be published in EM, thereby ensuring that EM meets its mission by publishing timely, informative, and high-quality content each month. The EAC also serves as a sounding board to help the editorial staff understand the needs and interests of A&WMA members and as a resource for finding additional qualified reviewers for articles submitted to EM.

The Critical Review Committee (CRC). For more than 50 years, A&WMA has solicited and published in the Journal of the Air & Waste Management Association (JA&WMA) an Annual Critical Review on a topic of critical importance to the air and waste management fields. Each year, the review author presents the Annual Critical Review during A&WMA’s Annual Conference & Exhibition. Complete List of Past Critical Reviews. The Critical Review Committee, which is a subcommittee of the Publications Committee, selects the review topics, solicits the authors/presenters, offers editorial guidance and critiques to the review authors, reviews the final manuscript before publication, and selects the participants for the panel discussion that follows the review presentation.
