On Thursday, September 23rd at 10 AM EST, Al Alwan, Ph.D.Water Quality Branch, Water Division, Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 will present a web based seminar on Alternative Approaches to Address Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCP) Environmental Fate.
The list of Rx and PPCP products continues to grow with raised concern that little is understood about their cumulative impact on humans or the environment. Wastewater treatment is evolving to try to keep pace with the ever increasing cocktail of compounds but the immediate need is to identify which compounds to monitor and at what level.
There is no charge for attendance but space is limited. Please contact Dendra J. Best. Executive Director Wastewater Education 501(c)3 231-233-1806 or
info@wastewatereducation.org to make a reservation.
The main theme of Dr. Alwan’s seminar is to propose risk-based management at the watershed level and identifies a Five Tool Alternative Approach making use of GIS mapping using actual watershed case studies.
