SUMMARY:Principles of Iron and Manganese Treatment
DESCRIPTION:All drinking water and/or water professionals\, operators\, maintenance\, and management personnel will benefit from taking this training. This training is planned for those who work in the drinking water industry.  This four-hour course will discuss the causes and characteristics of Iron and Manganese in drinking water. The effectiveness of treatment system options will as be included in this course.\nThe following items will be covered:\n\n\nWhat causes brown water in public drinking water systems?\n\n\nCharacteristics of Iron and Manganese\n\n\nProcesses for Iron and Manganese treatment\n\n\nCommon types of customer complaints and troubleshooting solutions\n\n\nThis course will show that Iron and Manganese are naturally occurring elements commonly found in groundwater and wells. While not considered a health hazard\, their presence often results in staining of laundry and plumbing components\, as well as offensive tastes and appearances. Treatment methods for these elements depend on the form in which they occur in the untreated and treated water. Therefore\, accurate water testing is important before considering your options and selecting treatment equipment.\nThis class is being offered for FREE through RIRWA’s EPA Technical Assistance and Training Program.

SUMMARY:A PFAS Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1940s a group of man-made chemicals\, perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS)\, have been manufactured and used in a  variety of industries and households. By 2015 EPA phased out two of the PFAS compounds and issued a Health Advisory. Connecticut\, and other states\, are taking measures to address the presence of these contaminants that are found in drinking water supplies and wastewater systems. This presentation will be an overview of the  properties of the chemical\, its health effects\,  and the research\, the challenges to investigate\, monitor\, treat and fund this harmful PFAS chemical contamination. \n  \nThis class is being offered for FREE through RIRWA’s EPA Technical Assistance and Training Program.
