Murphy’s Law (if something can go wrong, it will go wrong) is true all over the world. If you’re installing and maintaining on-site and decentralized wastewater systems, it’s pretty much a given that Murphy is interested in what you are doing and will strike eventually. Just since last year’s WWETT Show, we have all seen the impact of war, famine, fire, and flood on local and global systems. Wastewater Education 501(c)3 and Operators Without Borders are partnering to present a two-day disaster management training workshop at this week’s show. As a preview to that workshop, this session will share stories and lessons learned for troubleshooting and repairing on-site and decentralized systems when disasters hit. You will leave equipped with practical insights, strategies, and collaborative approaches to better prepare for and manage wastewater systems during times of crisis.
After this session, attendees will be able to:
1. Evaluate real-world case studies of how on-site and decentralized systems professionals have responded to crises, including identifying challenges faced, innovative solutions implemented, and lessons learned.
2. Develop strategies to enhance the resilience of on-site and decentralized wastewater systems in the face of unforeseen crises, including proactive planning and leveraging resources effectively.
3. Identify the benefits of international collaboration and knowledge sharing among wastewater professionals during disasters to mobilize resources to support affected communities.
Type: 90-Minute Education Session
