Agenda: Officer Elections and Hawaii Sourced Storm Water Treatment Materials Presentation

Speaker: ???, Kennedy Jenks

Topic: Hawaii Sourced Storm Water Treatment Materials

With increasing focus on storm water quality across the country and Hawaii, storm water treatment is becoming a requirement to achieve extremely low regulated numerical effluent limits. Media filtration is a commonly used treatment technology. However, as one of the most geographically isolated locations in the world, Hawaii relies significantly on imported materials. Filter media with proven success are also imported, resulting in higher costs. Through a grant from HWEA, the research team identified 15 potential materials and evaluated them based on 9 criteria. Materials selected for evaluation were previously researched materials that may be sourced in Hawaii. The materials ranged from aggregates and organic materials to used products.

Cost: $20 members, $25 non-members, $10 students (Online registration and payment only) Lunch buffet included

TBD

 A full-day training workshop and excursion symposium, our headlining trainers Taylor and Don from Time 4 Change will have participants realize and develop their own unique communication style, explore ways to collaborate more effectively within their organization through hands-on exercises, and gain valuable skills on improving their personal and professional relationships through the B.A.N.K Personality Model. After lunch, participants will take a private excursion of the City and County of Honolulu’s solid waste program for our grey, blue, and green bins with facility tours of H-Power (Covanta), RRR Recycling Services, and the Waimanalo Gulch Sanitary Landfill.

This event is a pre-conference for a WEFMAX Honolulu conference, in which mainland and international members will be in attendance, so we encourage all ages, experience levels, and industry professions to participate.

The Western Society for Trenchless Technology (WESTT), the western chapter of NASTT, has graciously invited HWEA members to participate in their free trenchless webinar series. Please see below for details.
