Each year the Kentucky Rural Water Association conducts a Training Needs and a Sourcewater Protection Needs Workshop to identify the critical training needs of utilities in Kentucky.  The focus of the workshop will be to determine training needs in the areas of rule implementation, capacity development, and contamination prevention.

Sourcewater issues are similar plus a discussion of progress in the “Substantial Implementation” of protection activities in Kentucky.

This year the workshop will take place at the Muhlenberg County Career Advancement Center near Central City, Kentucky.  The Center is located at 50 Career Way (off Hwy. 189) in the Powderly community.  

The meeting will begin at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 16, 2010 immediately following the Administrative Training for Office Personnel which will be from 9:00 a.m. until noon.

A lunch will be provided prior to the workshop.  Please notify KRWA by Wednesday, September 15th if you plan to attend the lunch or the workshop.

Utility personnel and decision makers are invited to attend the workshop which will be designed to encourage a free interchange of ideas.  In the event that you will not be able to attend the workshop but would like to submit comments you can forward your ideas for critical training needs by written statement to KRWA or by e-mail to Clem Wethington (c.wethington@krwa.org) or Jack Stickney (j.stickney@krwa.org). Your comments will be presented at the workshop for consideration.
