Printer-friendlyPrinter-friendlyEmail to friendEmail to friend

To help tribes and Alaska Native Villages manage their drinking water and wastewater systems, EPA is releasing a series of 10 online training modules covering an array of operation, maintenance, and system management issues at smaller drinking water and wastewater facilities. Training topics include information on managing and maintaining drinking water, sewer, lagoon, and decentralized infrastructure as well as information on sustainably managing water systems, including asset management and techniques for developing rate structures. The online training materials are geared toward operators and managers in tribal lands, but potentially could benefit anyone managing a small water or wastewater system.
