As an environmental professional, credentialed by the Iowa Onsite Waste Water Association, I hereby acknowledge, accept, and profess to abide by the following code of conduct:

  2. I will proudly represent my credentialed status and the credential itself to my professional peers, and to the public I serve.
  3. While performing my duties, I will conduct myself in a professional manner befitting my credentialed status.
  4. I will do nothing to undermine, detract from, or otherwise cause to develop any damaging associations with respect to this credential.
  5. I accept that any activity on my part that will cause this credential any measure of injury serves as a breach and a failure on my part to uphold this code of ethics. Moreover, I accept that such action, for which I might be responsible, could result in the revocation of my credential.
  6. I commit that my professional goal is to serve my community by doing whatever I can do while carrying out my professional responsibilities to maintain and provide a healthful environment for all.
