    APRIL 2008 VOLUME 15 / NUMBER 2 $3 PM# 40064924 NOTE FROM THE CHAIR The MPWWA is committed to the improved operation of water and wastewater treatment plants through the better understanding of the design, construction and manage - ment of these facilities. Through the provision of regular “hands on” workshops and seminars, the association has enabled operators to upgrade their knowledge and has provided operators, especially those in smaller Maritime centres, with the opportunity to receive proper train - ing. The MPWWA encourages and facilitates an interchange of ideas between operators, professional and consultant engineers, contractors and other wastewater associations. In effect, the MPWWA provides an open forum for Atlantic Canada and has improved communications among operators, provincial govern - ments, industry and wastewater consultants across Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. What training opportunities are on the way? We have our 28th annual training seminar planned for April 20 to 23. At the event, we will be touching on several new technologies and introducing some of the latest equipment that is being used in the treatment of water and wastewater. In the coming months, there are also the following workshops lined up: • Electrical workshops at PEI's Holland College, Module #1 (May 5 to 6) and Module #2 (May 7 to 8). • Fire hydrant and valves workshops this spring, date and place TBA. MPWWA's training committee will hold a meeting shortly after the April conference to plan the workshops for the coming year. Have an idea? Send it our way. Go to www.mpwwa.ca and Photo courtesy of HRM press the "Contact Us" link or forward your idea to your local Mayor Peter Kelly (left) thanks project manager Ted Tam and project director Brad Anguish for their hard work.
