GNA is sad to announce the passing of David Williams (Rainbow Bay, QLD). David was a highly respected geomembrane designer and civil engineer with a long history of designing liner and cover systems for high profile mining companies and water authorities. David was also a keen board and body surfer who would enter the surf almost daily. He will be sadly missed. To send your condolences please email [email protected]
