# Confederation of European Environmental Engineering Societies

The Confederation of European Environmental Engineering Societies (CEEES) was created as a co-operative international organization for information exchange regarding environmental engineering between the various European societies in this field.
The CEEES maintains an online public discussion forum for the interchange of information.

## The member societies of the CEEES

As of 2012, these were the twelve member societies of the CEEES:
* Italy: Associazione Italia Tecnici Prove Ambientali (AITPA)
* France: Association pour le Développement des Sciences et Techniques de l'Environnement (ASTE)
* Belgium: Belgian Society of Mechanical and Environmental Engineering (BSMEE)
* Germany: Gesellschaft für Umweltsimulation (GUS)
* Finland: Finnish Society of Environmental Engineering (KOTEL)
* Czech Republic: National Association of Czech Environmental Engineers (NACEI)
* Austria: Österreichische Gesellschaft für Umweltsimulation (ÖGUS)
* Netherlands: PLatform Omgevings Technologie (PLOT)
* United Kingdom: Society of Environmental Engineers (SEE)
* Sweden: Swedish Environmental Engineering Society (SEES)
* Portugal: Sociedade Portuguesa de Simulacao Ambiental e Aveliaca de Riscos (SOPSAR)
* Switzerland: Swiss Society for Environmental Engineering (SSEE)
Each member society successively holds the presidency and the secretariat for a period of two years.

## Technical Advisory Boards

The CEEES has three major Technical Advisory Boards:
* Mechanical Environments: The aim of this board is to advance methodologies and technologies for quantifying, describing and simulating mechanical environmental conditions experienced by mechanical equipment during its useful life.
* Climatic and Atmospheric Pollution Effects: The aim of this board is the study of the climatic and atmospheric pollution effects on materials and mechanical equipment.
* Reliability and Environmental Stress Screening: The aim of this board is the study how the environmental effects the reliability of equipment.
