[Pharmwaste] NACWA Conference, Nov 14-16, Denver CO

[DeBiasi,Deborah]

The National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) has posted its
agenda (registration information, etc.) for its 2007 National
Pretreatment & Pollution Prevention Workshop.  The 2007 National
Pretreatment & Pollution Prevention Workshop will continue its tradition
of providing pretreatment professionals with the valuable information
they need to do their jobs protecting the nation's waters. Workshop
participants will have plenty of opportunities to network with their
colleagues, representatives from municipal and state governments, and
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 

Speakers and panel presentations at the Pretreatment Workshop will
explore new areas of concern for pretreatment professionals and give
updates and analysis about ongoing pretreatment issues. Topics that will
be covered include hauled waste acceptance, waste products from
alternative fuels such as biodiesel and ethanol, pharmaceuticals
entering the waste stream, and emerging contaminants from consumer
products and nanotechnology. Informative case studies about enforcement,
criminal prosecution, and civil lawsuits will also be presented. 

In addition to these important topics, the Workshop will have updates on
effluent limitation guidelines and categorical standards that are being
developed, as well as research being conducted on emerging contaminants.
And, in keeping with its historical success, regional EPA officials will
participate in the popular Regional Roundtable discussion session.
