HOTEL CUT-OFF FOR SPECIAL WORKSHOP RATE – OCTOBER 9, 2001

AMSA/EPA Pretreatment Workshop Showcases Critical Developments; Offers Unique Opportunities
The 2001 AMSA/EPA Pretreatment Coordinators Workshop will be held in Nashville, Tennessee, November 7 - 9, 2001. The Workshop agenda builds on eleven prior years of informative sessions focused on the latest pretreatment issues. As always, the Workshop provides a unique opportunity for pretreatment professionals from across the nation to identify program challenges and work together to create solutions. The workshop format is designed to maximize interaction among attendees and representatives from all levels of government. If you are active in your agency’s pretreatment program this is one workshop you should not miss!

Workshop to Address National Developments
This year’s forum will bring together experts from local and state governments and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Regions and Headquarters to discuss opportunities to improve the direction of the National Industrial Pretreatment Program. New developments on key issues with implications for national pretreatment initiatives such as: mercury, radioactivity, effluent limitation guidelines, pretreatment streamlining, the National Biosolids Partnership, total maximum daily loads, sanitary sewer overflows and EPA’s strategic goals program receive significant scrutiny and discussion at the Workshop. The Workshop will also feature several informative breakout sessions that will allow attendees to interact with their peers and address critical pretreatment issues. Significantly, an unprecedented guidance document encouraging cooperation between commercial laundries and public wastewater treatment agencies will be unveiled during an informative panel presentation.
