You’d never guess today that Brian Boswell more or less stumbled into wastewater management.
Now as superintendent of wastewater for Columbus (Georgia) Water Works, he oversees two combined sewer overflow water treatment facilities along with the South Columbus Water Resource Facility. For his 18 years of industry excellence, Boswell received a 2022 William D. Hatfield Award from the Georgia Association of Water Professionals.
Humble origins
After 15 years at various jobs in area companies, Boswell realized by the mid-2000s that companies in the area were closing up or moving away. “I knew that I wasn’t on a good career path,” he recalls.
