Мичиганский департамент проведет вебинар о работе систем очистки сточных вод для местных лидеров

EGLE to host webinar on wastewater treatment for local leaders August 19 The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) will hold its next Local Leaders Webinar on August 19, focusing on wastewater treatment in communities. The session is part of a free monthly series designed to help local officials address environmental issues and understand relevant regulations. The upcoming webinar, titled "What Local Leaders need to know about Wastewater Treatment in your Community," will take place from 10:00 to 11:00 AM. According to EGLE, "Wastewater treatment is one of the most important services that your community provides, and you may not even know it’s there. Wastewater collection systems and wastewater treatment plants are essential facilities that move and treat wastewater, removing pollutants to restore the quality of the water and protect public health. In this session, you will learn how a wastewater treatment system works, why it needs to operate properly, and how it’s regulated by EGLE. This webinar will help provide you with information and resources to address common questions about the wastewater treatment services in your community." Each webinar in the series includes a presentation by EGLE staff and a question-and-answer segment for attendees. All sessions are recorded, and links to the recordings are shared with registrants after each event. More information about the series, including details on upcoming webinars and access to past recordings, is available on the series webpage. The next webinar in the series is scheduled for September 17 and will address per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in local communities. EGLE encourages individuals needing language assistance or accommodations to contact the department at least two weeks before each event to request support for language, mobility, visual, hearing, translation, or other needs. Materials are also available in alternate formats upon request. EGLE states that it does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, religion, age, national origin, color, marital status, disability, political beliefs, height, weight, genetic information, or sexual orientation in the administration of its programs or activities, and prohibits intimidation and retaliation, as required by applicable laws and regulations.
