Meeting Discharge Plume Regulatory Requirements

Compliance with regulations surrounding thermal and pollutant discharge plumes in natural water bodies can be a complex and expensive effort for environmental managers at industrial, utility, and municipal wastewater facilities. While requirements are often driven by the U.S. EPA, state agencies may have more stringent rules which are influenced by local issues. 

Please join Alden, Malcolm Pirnie, and ASA for this free three-part webinar series that serves as an introduction to discharge regulations, discharge design considerations, as well as field and model studies that enable success in demonstrating compliance. The webinar schedule is as follows:
 
Tuesday, September 28, 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. EDT
 
Outfall Design Considerations
 
1)      Introduction to outfalls/discharges (Hagop Shahabian, Malcolm Pirnie)
2)      Modeling considerations (Dan Gessler, Alden)
3)      Modeling impacts on detailed design (Hagop Shahabian, Malcolm Pirnie)
 
Wednesday, September 29, 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. EDT
 
Thermal Discharge
 
1)      Regulatory background (Jim McLaren, ASA)
2)      Study design (Ray Tuttle and Mark Kosakowski, Alden)
 
Thursday, September 30, 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. EDT
 
Pollutant Discharge
 
1)      Regulatory background (Hagop Shahabian and Anthony Russo, Malcolm Pirnie)
2)      Study design (Mark Kosakowski, Alden and Hagop Shahabian, Malcolm Pirnie)
 
While participants are free to sign up for all three webinars, it is anticipated that all registrants will sign up for day 1, and then choose whether to sign up for day 2 or day 3, depending upon whether they are working on thermal or pollutant projects.
 
Who Should Attend:
·         Plant environmental managers
·         Wastewater and power generation consultants involved in discharge licensing and design
