Fort Washington, Pa., Jan. 13, 2004 -- Identifying cost-effective and commercially-proven methods for arsenic removal treatment technologies is a growing concern to many municipalities in the west.
With the January 2006 implementation date approaching, municipalities must quickly make provisions for meeting the new federal MCL of 10 ppb in drinking water. In an effort to facilitate discussion and provide the public with information on state-of-the-art technologies, Severn Trent Services will host a conference to discuss arsenic removal solutions in Northern California.
Topics scheduled for discussion include arsenic chemistry, arsenic removal treatment options, pilot testing, and full scale design and installation. The event is the fourth in a series of seminars that Severn Trent has organized in the Southwest. This one day free conference will be held Tuesday, January 20, 2004 in Sacramento from 9:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m., complimentary lunch and parking. Seating is limited.
Located at the Doubletree Sacramento, Evaluating Arsenic Removal Solutions in Northern California offers public works professionals, state officials, technical experts and others the opportunity to participate in a detailed review of this pressing public safety concern.
