About Association of Drainage Authorities (ADA)

The Association of Drainage Authorities (ADA) is the membership body for organisations involved in water level management throughout the United Kingdom, with over 230 members. ADA's members include Internal Drainage Boards, the Environment Agency, Regional Flood & Coastal Committees, DARD Rivers Agency, Natural Resources Wales, Local Authorities and commercial suppliers and service providers.

Established in 1937, ADA was created to watch over and support the interests of drainage authorities at a national and parliamentary level, providing a forum for the exchange of ideas and discussions, and to disseminate information of common interest. ADA is recognised as the national representative body for Internal Drainage Boards (IDBs) in England.

ADA undertakes a wide range of work for and on behalf of its members, including:

• responding to, and working with Government in support of our members
• providing technical and administrative support
• publicising the work of our members
• gathering and presenting industry reports, bulletins and guidance
• sharing information with members on matters of importance and interest
• organising conferences and workshops
• organising other events, such as working demonstrations and golf days
• linking members to Europe’s other water level managers through the European Union of Water Management Associations (EUWMA)
