Rural, suburban and urban communities across the United States are wrestling with increasingly complex wastewater management issues in the face of funding limitations for system upkeep and new infrastructure, environmental degradation and water resource limitations, and increasing energy costs. Aging septic systems and new development in exurban areas often present acute challenges, prompting these communities to seek public sewer extensions for wastewater management. However, because of the high upfront, recurring and secondary costs of large, public sewer systems, many private and public entities are taking a fresh look at decentralized, soil dispersing wastewater treatment systems. In fact, leading edge communities are finding new and innovative ways to manage decentralized systems in a way that saves money and improves environmental and social conditions in their service areas. This OnDemand Webinar will provide an overview of the essential elements of sustainable decentralized wastewater management systems, including everything from the nuts-and-bolts basics of proper design to emerging applications for decentralized water reclamation and reuse systems in urban and suburban areas.
Learning Objectives:
•You will be able to describe system design fundamentals.
•You will be able to discuss pumping and cluster systems.
•You will be able to review types of decentralized system management programs.
•You will be able to identify sustainability drivers for and benefits of distributed/decentralized systems.

"While the presentation was excellent, the convenience was outstanding. I downloaded the seminar to my ipod and listened to the whole course during a flight. I obtained 6 hours of ethics credits with no problem and without missing a beat! I highly recommend these seminars to attorneys in states that recognize Advantage."
— Michael Flanagan, Esq.
"I very much enjoyed listening to your course as, unlike other Ethics courses I have attended over my 41 years at the Kennedy Space Center, it focused on actual situations the speaker had dealt with and how the attorney's first responsibility is to his client and not to how much fee he can generate."
— Douglas G. Hendriksen, Esq.
