The ADEQ Safe Drinking Water Section has released the 2006-2007 schedule for its statewide Operator Certification Expense Reimbursement Grant (ERG) Drinking Water Workshops

"An opportunity to improve your network and learn techniques and preparedness for your community."
 

The ERG work plan provides educational assistance to certified operators of community and nontransient, noncommunity public water systems serving less than 3,300 persons. The primary goal of the ERG program is to provide continuing education to eligible operators at locations that benefit the majority of operators. Eligible operators will receive these services during the fiscal year as long as they are employed by a public water system that meets the eligibility requirements. 

ADEQ will be using a combination of educational workshops, interactive media, and textbooks to provide continuing education opportunities to each eligible operator. 

For fiscal year 2007 (July 2006 through June 2007), each eligible operator will be reimbursed for one overnight stay at two individual workshops. Eligible operators may attend more than two workshops; however no reimbursement would be granted for any overnight stay for additional workshops. In addition, operators not eligible for grant reimbursement will be allowed to attend any workshop on a space available, first-come, first-serve basis.

This workshop limited to 100 attendees.

There is no cost for this training.
Materials, lodging (one night) and lunches will be provided for eligible operators (those working for CWS & NTNCWS serving less than 3,300).
Transportation is the attendee's responsibility.
