Small Water System Training Course Schedule

Designed for drinking water system operators, this one-day course covers the basics of water system operation and maintenance, water testing and other regulations, waterborne disease, water treatment for small systems, and record keeping. We may also review the 1996 Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments, and the State Drinking Water Revolving Loan Fund (SDWRLF) as well as water system security issues.

Classes are scheduled from 9AM to 4PM. Upon course completion, attendees receive 0.6 Continuing Education Units (CEUs). This class also meets the training requirement for Small Water System Operator Certification.

If your ground water system is 150 connections or less and is required to have a certified Small Groundwater operator this is the OHA(DHS), DWP required course for initial certification or re-certification.

Mailing will go out by counties covered. Class size will be limited to 40 people. Current 2012 schedule below.
