Guided Online Course: Low Impact Development: a Holistic Approach to
Urban Stormwater Management
May 9 - July 29, 2022
Low Impact Development (LID), is a well-established approach now integral
to numerous land development guidelines and regulations nationwide.
This course will cover the fundamental principles of LID, the critical
importance of water-centric site planning, and the nature-based engineered
devices used and unit process in them that control runoff quantity and quality. The course will emphasize LID as a holistic approach that includes conventional stormwater management.
Virtual Workshop: A Proactive Approach to User Friendly Pretreatment
Local Limits for Wastewater
July 12 & 14, 2022
Developing a forward-looking sampling program for a local wastewater
collection system can lead to Pretreatment Local Limits that both better
protect the publicly owned treatment works (POTW) and allow for less
stringent pretreatment limits. This can ease compliance requirements
and allow for less sensitive and lower cost sample analysis that will
save money for both the utility and industrial dischargers.
POTWs are frequently required to develop Local Limits for their Pretreatment programs. These
programs are developed using a standardized process that relies on important background data, such
as the removal efficiency and background levels for pollutants of concern. This data isn’t usually
available locally, so reference data is usually used. However, much of this reference data dates back
30 to 40 years. Since that time, treatment technologies and detection methods have greatly improved.
This workshop will demonstrate how to identify, collect and leverage the needed site-specific
information to develop Pretreatment Local Limits that are both accommodating to local industry and
save money for both the user and the utility.
Certificate Program: Water Treatment Certificate Program
Designed for the practicing engineer, this program will take your water resources career to the next
level. Learn how to use the technology to make drinking water from groundwater, lakes, rivers,
streams, oceans, stormwater, and wastewater reuse, plus all of the planning aspects required to lay
the groundwork for a new water treatment plant. Certificate program enrollment saves you up to 35%
versus purchasing courses individually.
