Region 8 - 18th Annual Pretreatment Conference
The
18th Annual Pretreatment Conference was held in Durango, CO on May 6-8, 2008.
The conference was attended by local pretreatment professionals within Region
8 as well as local pretreatment professionals from Region 9 and 10.
The location and presentations made this year's conference one to the best in recent memory. Durango is a very fun and exciting place to be in May. Every morning, the conference attendees were greeted or in some cases, woken up by the train leaving the station. The train station was only 2 blocks away from the hotel.
The conference presentations included EPA updates and training as well as EPA enforcement presentations. In addition, local pretreatment personnel gave presentations regarding their implementation of the pretreatment regulations in identification, permitting, and enforcement of industrial users within their service area.
