Watershed Webcast Targets Wastewater Utilities

February 18, 2008

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Watershed Academy sponsors free monthly Webcasts for watershed practitioners from around the globe. On Feb. 20, presenters will discuss how sustainable watershed approaches are being used to help utilities identify the best practices to address various management challenges. This live Internet seminar will provide a brief introduction to EPA's Sustainable Infrastructure Initiative and will highlight the work of two utilities that use sustainable watershed management approaches.

The Webcast will feature Andy Crossland, Sustainable Infrastructure coordinator, EPA; Kevin Shafer, P.E., executive director, Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District; and Stefanie Farrell, engineering services coordinator, Hallsdale-Powell Utility District.
