Description:

Join the Clean Water Summit Partners (BACWA, CASA, CVCWA, CWEA and SCAP) for a series of virtual presentations from clean water professionals and regulators about the State Water Board’s investigative order to publicly owned treatment works.

In some cases, groundwater sampling may also be required. This webinar was designed to assist agencies with efficient and consistent compliance with the order.
