Click here to view the full agenda.

Why is this seminar important? This seminar is designed specifically to provide information to operators and owners of municipal wastewater systems.  Our presenters will offer expertise and relevant experience; everything you need to know from PFAS basics, regulations, source identification & reduction, analysis, treatment, and disposal will be covered. Our goal is to provide a well rounded understanding of PFAS for seminar attendees so that they can be prepared to communicate and educate their own communities, not IF but WHEN the topic arises. Questions about PFAS from the public, local officials, local farmers, media, etc. are inevitable. Will you be prepared to address these questions with confidence?  

Who should attend? Anyone who needs a well rounded understanding of PFAS in the municipal wastewater cycle including: owners and operators of municpal wastewater treatment plants, public officials, biosolids contractors, Drain Commissioners, etc.  

CECs are PENDING approval at the October EGLE Certification Board Meeting. Credits are not guaranteed and if approved, certificates will be issued following the meeting.
