2013 EPA Environmental Merit Award

On Wednesday, June 26, 2013, NEIWPCC received an Environmental Merit Award from EPA New England for work on wastewater management training. At the ceremony held at the EPA offices in Boston, NEIWPCC was honored for helping numerous states with programs that prepared wastewater operators to fill the shoes of retiring treatment plant managers. Thank you, EPA, for this rewarding recognition and congratulations to NEIWPCC's Tom Groves, JETCC's Leeann Hanson, and our other staff who've worked so hard to make the management training programs a success.
