Technical Program Committee is seeking topics for presentation at the
Conference and invites you to be a presenter, a session moderator,
or to solicit associates, engineers, corporate leaders, public officials,
academia, consultants, or equipment and service representatives to
do the same so that we can enhance our industry by sharing technical
knowledge and experiences that support and continue growth.
The 2010
Technical Program will focus on the following categories:

- Operator Training
- Management/Professional Issues
Presentations are invited in the following areas of interest related
to these categories:
- Case studies in wastewater collection, treatment, disposal and management
- Watershed management
- Groundwater issues (contaminant sources, low recharge rates, etc.)
- Biosolids and beneficial reuse
- Laboratory and sampling procedures for wastewater
- Storm water control, high-density development issues (erosion, flooding,
etc.), and permitting
- Innovative permit compliance or enforcement settlement actions
- Project management, training, and safety
Interested
Presenters are requested to complete the Presentation

November 2, 2009 to Rob McElroy(see details below).
If you
are unable to present at the conference but have a topic in mind that
you would like to see presented, we would appreciate your input by including
it on the attached form and returning the form to us so that potential
presenters can be contacted. We are requesting that
abstracts of the presentations be submitted to the addresses below by Monday,
November 2, 2009. Abstracts of presentations should
be 300 words or less and should be submitted in digital form. Presentations
should not exceed 40 minutes (25 to 30-minute presentation with

per presentation will receive reduced conference registration. Contact
either Kerry Hannah or Rob Coleman (see below) for more details. Conference
registration information with the list of presentation topics will be
sent to AWEA members in January 2009. Various incentives for those attending
the technical sessions, including drawings for prizes, will also be added
to this year’s event.
We hope
to have more than 500 environmental professionals in attendance, along
