EPA WSD Hosts a Variety of Web Events in June
Our colleagues in EPA’s Water Security Division offer three interesting opportunities for states and utilities to learn about water quality monitoring, field responses for contamination incidents, and fuel supply planning:
Online Water Quality Monitoring for Distribution Systems
This is part of the ongoing Water Quality Surveillance and Response Webinar Series.
DATE: June 5, 2018
TIME: 1:00-2:00PM (eastern)
REGISTER: Here
This event will discuss design considerations to implement and operate an online water quality monitoring system for a distribution system. The focus will be on monitoring location selection, monitoring parameters, and information management and analysis.
Field Response Planning for Drinking Water Contamination Emergency
DATE: June 14, 2018
TIME: 2:00-3:00PM (eastern)
REGISTER: Here
Learn how to prepare for basic and advanced field response activities; the hazard decision points in the field response process; how to document field information and findings using provided templates and forms; and where to find additional resources for planning and training.
Fuel Supply Planning
DATE: June 28, 2018
TIME: 1:00-2:00PM (eastern)
REGISTER: Here
Hear how Oregon developed a Fuel Action Plan to mitigate the impact of a catastrophic earthquake that would devastate Oregon’s fuel supply and distribution capability. Issues such as prioritization, distribution, waivers and security when trying to obtain fuel for generators during a long duration, widespread power outage will be addressed.
