Upcoming Webinars for Small Water Systems
Our colleagues at the Environmental Finance Center Network (EFCN) are hosting three more no cost webinars that should be of great interest to small systems. These events are part of the EPA Competitive award to EFCN to provide training and assistance to small systems. Some of these events offer Continuing Education Credits. However, individuals must contact their state drinking water programs to determine if the credits are available in their state. The logistical information for each and brief descriptions are as follows:
