SUMMARY:Webinar | Keeping the Water On During and After the COVID-19 Pandemic
DESCRIPTION:Due to COVID-19\, many water utilities are not shutting water off for non-payment\, as well as waiving late and reconnection fees. Some utilities have made this choice\, while others are under moratoriums set by their states. How can utilities continue to operate so that the water stays on to combat COVID-19 through handwashing when some customers aren’t paying? This webinar will provide practices to mitigate the revenue loss to utilities. \n\n\nOne practice will involve offering low-flow restrictors to non-paying customers to reduce their volumetric charges. We will also look at how customer assistance programs (CAPs) can be started or expanded at small water systems. The webinar will cover ways to fund these CAPs. We will also consider some practical ways to reduce costs by shifting resources during the pandemic. \n\n\n\nPresenter: Stacey Isaac Berahzer\, CEO\, IB Environmental \nContact: smallsystems@syr.edu \nPartners: \n \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Webinar | First Steps to an Effective Internship Program at Your Utility Inspiration from the Intern Herself
DESCRIPTION:Why did Lorraine\, a 19-year old college student\, change her career aspirations towards water utilities right before she left for college? Because of her “life changing” work during her water internship. Lorraine says “I never would have found water if it were not for this opportunity. It was everything I loved in life wrapped up into one.” \nIntroducing young people to water careers isn’t rocket science\, but it does take a little time and effort. Find out how to tap into easy-to-use resources that help you make connections with local schools to set up education and internship programs that will inspire students in your community to want to work at your water utility. \nHear from the intern herself. Lorraine will talk about what inspires her generation\, how to make meaningful connections to the public\, and why young people are probably more interested in what you do\, than you think. \nPresenters will include Tonya Bronleewe of the Environmental Finance Center at Wichita State and Lorraine Lowrey herself. \nRegister for the event here!

SUMMARY:Webinar | Reducing Water System Costs Through Energy Efficiency
DESCRIPTION:Nearly four percent of the nation’s electricity is consumed by water and wastewater facilities\, and industry experts are predicting that energy costs could increase 20 percent by 2035. Water and wastewater treatment costs often consume 50 percent or more of the budget of many small communities. Historically\, water and wastewater facilities were designed for peak capacity\, with little consideration for operational efficiency. An energy audit performed by trained and certified personnel can often uncover potential energy savings of 10 to 50 percent annually\, but even a cursory examination done by in-house staff can often result in substantial energy savings. \nIn this webinar\, you will learn:\n• How to identify the biggest “energy wasters” in your operation\n• How to calculate the break-even point (payback) of retrofitting obsolete equipment\n• The difference between Level 1 (in-house) and Level 2 (contracted) energy audits\n• How to conduct a cursory energy audit of your facility \nWho should attend: This workshop will give all water systems the information and resources needed to start down the path toward increased efficiency and decreased costs. Recommended audience is system operators\, managers\, board members and community leaders with an interest in energy cost reduction.

SUMMARY:Must-Have Financial Policies for Small Water Systems
DESCRIPTION:  \nPresented by Mary Fleming\, RDS Environmental\, RCAC. \nDrinking water and wastewater treatment is essential\, not only to a city or a community\, but to even a single household. The service you provide to your community is essential to the health and safety of your customers\, you have the profound obligation to ensure that your utility’s finances are managed properly to support the continual provision of essential water-related services where you live. Your utility can sink or swim based on its financial standing. An informed plan for continuity is essential and\, while there is no foolproof way to prevent fraud\, errors and omissions\, a clear\, well-documented set of financial controls communicated to staff will minimize exposure. \nIn this webinar\, we will glimpse into the consequences of real life utilities that operated with inadequate or non-existent financial policies and how the situations they faced could be avoided.
