Missouri Smallflows Annual Conference

At Table Rock Lake Water Quality, I also help organize events for the Missouri Smallflows Organization. For the last couple of months I have been preparing for the annual conference in Columbia. The conference was held January 18-20. This event is hosted to provide educational opportunities for onsite wastewater professionals to learn about new technology in their field. We had speakers from many different areas, including Joyce Hudson from the Environmental Protection Agency in Washington D.C. It was interesting speaking with her about the steps that MSO is taking to promote education for our wastewater professionals. She was impressed with how the organization is taking steps to accomplish this. Vendors from the onsite wastewater field also participate to promote their products. This event allowed me to gain knowledge on the different types of advanced treatment systems available for wastewater treatment. The MSO Conference was a great success and many participants stated that it was great conference.
