What's New in Wastewater Treatment Facility Operations

Future Training

In April we kicked off the Comprehensive Five Year Strategic Training Plan for WWTP Operators and Inspectors that will provide for the delivery of 25 to 30 seminars and workshops each year to professionals in the wastewater field and to NYSDEC wastewater inspectors. The Plan addresses operations, regulations, wastewater infrastructure, and collection systems just to name a few of the topics. Over the last decade, we have reached out to 10,000 professionals with this kind of training. For a copy of the new Plan, contact Bob Wither at (518) 402-8097.

Join the Wastewater Operator Email Group

We have set up an email group for wastewater plant operators/professionals to receive various supplemental information and get the latest information that we may receive. You'll be the first to get Operator Facts!

We can, via email, pass this information on to you quickly. If you are interested in joining our email group, please contact Robin Gillespie at (518) 402-8089 and provide her with your email address.

Note: If you have already notified us that you prefer electronic versions of Operator Facts and training notices, you have been added to the group.
