Join EFCN for this webinar series designed to help small wastewater system operators pass their certification exams. The series starts with a 1-hour overview of study tips and test preparation techniques. Each subsequent 1-hour webinar will focus on a single topic typically found in Level 1 and Level 2 exams including, but not limited to: Collection Systems, Treatment Overviews, Disinfection and Solids Handling Basics, NPDES Regulations, Wastewater Math, Safety, Sampling and Reporting and other general wastewater topics. Each session will include sample questions and a short Q and A period.

While this series is primarily focused on helping new operators achieve their Level 1 and 2 certifications, currently certified operators looking to pass higher level tests can also benefit from attendance as higher-level certification tests are cumulative and typically cover basic as well as advanced treatment topics.

Session 10: This session focuses on the US Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, and other safety regulations and concerns in wastewater treatment. We will discuss important topics including common hazards, personal protective equipment (PPE), confined space entry rules, equipment lockout/tag out, hazardous chemical communication standards & material safety data sheets (MSDS), excavation safety and blood borne pathogen standards.

Presenter: James Markham, Research Engineer, Southwest Environmental Finance Center
