Course Description
The quality of groundwater used cannot be compromised any longer and the servicing requirements of on-site sewage disposal systems cannot be ignored. With limited funds available to you - the private owner or regulatory agency that has responsibility for inspection, the task of on-site sewage treatment and disposal is becoming very difficult.
The Training Course Will Highlight ?
Industrial wastewater dischargers face a variety of enforcement actions if they are not in compliance with the USA Clean Water Act. This is the case if the discharger is a direct industrial discharger, or is an indirect discharger into a Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW). This course covers the regulations that affect the management of industrial wastewater permitting, effluent guidelines, and associated issues
