Date & Time:

The Groundwater Treatment Techniques training will be held on the following date and time:

March 5 | 2:00PM-4:00PM 

This training is being held in Pacific Time.

Description:
85% of California’s public water systems use only groundwater as their primary source of water. A significant number of California communities rely on contaminated groundwater sources for their public drinking water supply, requiring the source to undergo a comprehensive treatment effort. Groundwater treatment is a complex topic. The range of contaminants of concern to safe drinking water is broad, covering essentially the entire chemical spectrum. Occurrence of groundwater contamination is similarly diverse encompassing both naturally occurring and man-made contaminants. Operators of groundwater systems therefore need a comprehensive reconnaissance-level knowledge of groundwater treatment technologies and how these technologies are applied to removal / control of specific groundwater contaminants.

Participants will learn about treatment for the seven most common groundwater contaminants:

·        Microbial contaminants (bacteria and virus)

·        Iron and manganese

·        Arsenic

·        Nitrate

·        Uranium

·        Organics

o VOC

o SOCs

Operator Basics Series: The recommended audience includes operators, managers and board members.

Location:

This training will be hosted online on GoToTraining.

Scholarship & Fees:
Groundwater Treatment Techniques is a free training to attend.

Registration:
To receive contact hours for online workshops, each person must be registered with their own email address. An evaluation at the end of the training is also required.

Are you attending as a group, but not watching from your own computer?
Attendees do not need to participate from their own computer/device for the online trainings. Each attendee will be required to register and complete an evaluation to verify their participation. Prior to session start, a Group Leader will need to inform RCAC (registration@rcac.org) which attendees will view the sessions together. Following the training, an evaluation is sent to the Group Lead who will be responsible for sharing it with each attendee in the group.
