This
year’s recipient of the Lee Agger Award is Steve Butler of Brewer Water
Pollution Control Facility!
On Monday, October 27, 2008
JETCC’s Training Coordinator, Leeann Hanson presented the Award to Mr.
Butler at the Brewer facility.
Steve first
volunteered as a trainer for JETCC in 1996 when he assisted with a
safety training class in Brewer. It was a safety class, and at that time
Steve was on the Safety Committee. Since that time Steve has become one of
those people JETCC has often called for information, direction on training
or even assistance with teaching a more classes. Steve has volunteered his
time to train for JETCC in locations from Presque Isle to South Portland
and in the words of JETCC’s Training Coordinator has always had the
attitude of ”just let me know when and where, and I’ll see if I can do
it”! Steve is one of the people who really makes my job easy.”

JETCC..........

The Joint Environmental Training Coordinating Committee was established in
1985 to coordinate training that meets the needs of Maine’s environmental
professionals. We utilize the best instructional and technical support
available to provide this training, which focuses primarily on water
pollution control and water quality protection.
Twice each year we publish a schedule of continuing education and
certification training courses. To develop these courses, we rely on
carefully selected focus groups to provide direction and insight on topics
and content.
Our instructors are experts in their field such as professional trainers
and water pollution control professionals, representatives from equipment
and supply manufacturers, staff from the Maine Department of Environmental
Protection (DEP) and other regulatory agencies, municipal leaders and
officials, and employees of engineering and consulting firms.
Training certificates are based on training hours that are awarded after
successful completion of each program. Most of our programs are approved
by Maine DEP for training credits towards its Wastewater Treatment Plant
Operator Certification Program. Many programs are approved by the Maine
Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) for Drinking Water Operator
training. Increasingly, our contract programs and projects also meet the
educational needs and qualifications of many professional certifications.
In early 2006, Maine DEP transferred to JETCC
all of the administrative duties of Maine’s Wastewater Operator
Certification program. These duties include coordinating certificate
renewal, record keeping, and applications for Maine’s Wastewater Treatment
Plant Operator exams that are conducted every May and November.
From its roots in wastewater training, JETCC has built a strong system of
partnerships to provide educational and networking opportunities for many
specialized disciplines. We take pride in our strong working relationship
with Maine DEP, Maine DHHS and other regulatory agencies. We work closely
with the Maine Wastewater Control Association on water pollution control
issues and with other related organizations such as the Maine Water
Utilities Association.
Since its inception in 1985, JETCC has been managed by the New England
Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission. As a Maine-based program,
JETCC receives many benefits from affiliation with this nationally
recognized partner.
