Lee Orton, the first executive director of the Nebraska Well Drillers Association, is receiving the 2019 NGWA Ross L. Oliver Award at Groundwater Week 2019, December 3-5 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Orton shares what the award—NGWA’s most prestigious—means to him in December’s “Catching Up” video interview. The award is presented to those who have made outstanding contributions to the groundwater industry, and Orton certainly has. Along with his decades of work with the NWDA, Orton helped organize the first NGWA Fly-In in Washington, D.C.
