BC Branch Newsletter - Runoff
Runoff is our digital newsletter with circulation to over 1000 Branch members, affiliates
and friends via email. It is also posted on the CWRA website for public viewing.
Th e branch plans to publish Runoff three times yearly in February, June and October.
We welcome the submission of water resources related articles for our feature articles.
A feature article is diff erent from a project profi le in that no company name
or logo should be highlighted in the feature article. Th e writer and his/her company
are acknowledged as the author. In a project profi le, both the company name and
the logo may be clearly visible.
For each Runoff issue, we will select 2 to 4 articles to publish. If your article
is selected, a free business card sized advertisement space for you or your company
will be provided in appreciation. Th e articles are selected based on our expected
interest to our members. If the topic is not time sensitive and we receive more
than 4 suitable articles, we may (with your permission) publish the article in a
later issue.
Other requirements for the feature article include the following:
- The article should reflect current issues or changes in water resources in BC.
- Topic must be of interest to our members.
- The article must be informative about water resources issues and may be technical
in nature, but the article must not promote a company or a product.
- The author is personally responsible for the accuracy of the article.
Articles must be submitted to the editor electronically (in both MS Word and PDF
fi le formats) and should include a brief biography of the author(s) and contact
information. Note that the biography will not be published. Th e article should
be typed in Times New Roman 11 pt and single spaced. Articles must be less than
1000 words and may include photos or other graphics. Th e article including all
graphics cannot exceed 3 letter sized pages. All graphics must be captioned and
sources should be cited for any photographs. Runoff reserves the right to edit with
respect to length, clarity and conformity with the editorial guidelines.
