SUMMARY:WaterNow Alliance: Leveraging Capital Markets to Accelerate Lead Service Line Replacements
DESCRIPTION:The new $15 billion in federal funding for lead service line replacements\, as vital and historic as it is\, is dwarfed by the estimated $47 billion need to address this public health crisis\, one that affects primarily the most vulnerable and needy among us\, often people of color. It is possible for local water leaders to close this funding gap. WaterNow Alliance and Environmental Policy Innovation Center will host a 1-hour virtual webinar for utility and community leaders nationwide on how they can access capital markets to maximize access to federal funding and accelerate the rate of lead line replacements on private property. \nThe webinar has 5 objectives:\n1. Highlight the One Water and multiple community benefits of replacing lead service lines\, particularly on private properties where they are the most prevalent and most likely to be harming disadvantaged households and communities of color.\n2. Feature perspectives from capital market investors about their interest in investing in lead service line replacement programs as a sound investment and to accelerate these needed replacements and protect public health.\n3. Equip participants with the knowledge of how to leverage local financing approaches to maximize access to federal dollars and accelerate the pace of replacements.\n4. Feature a real-world case study from communities and utilities replacing lead service lines at a faster pace than most.\n5. Answer questions about how to leverage capital markets for lead service line replacements.

SUMMARY:EFCN: Operator Certification: Study Tips and Test Preparation
DESCRIPTION:Join EFCN for this webinar series designed to help small wastewater system operators pass their certification exams. The series starts with a 1-hour overview of study tips and test preparation techniques. Each subsequent 1-hour webinar will focus on a single topic typically found in Level 1 and Level 2 exams including\, but not limited to: Collection Systems\, Treatment Overviews\, Disinfection and Solids Handling Basics\, NPDES Regulations\, Wastewater Math\, Safety\, Sampling and Reporting and other general wastewater topics. Each session will include sample questions and a short Q and A period. \nWhile this series is primarily focused on helping new operators achieve their Level 1 and 2 certifications\, currently certified operators looking to pass higher level tests can also benefit from attendance as higher-level certification tests are cumulative and typically cover basic as well as advanced treatment topics. \nSession 1: This session focuses on practical study and test preparation methods that can help wastewater operators testing for their initial and higher-level certifications. We will also cover a variety of available resources and discuss test-day techniques including time management\, and question analysis that can help test takers achieve positive outcomes. \nPresenter: James Markham\, Research Engineer\, Southwest Environmental Finance Center

SUMMARY:CWSRF Webinar Series: Changes to the SRF With Additional Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) Funds
DESCRIPTION:Session 2: The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law brought a massive influx of money to the State Revolving Fund programs: $12.7 billion for Clean Water and $35.7 billion for Drinking Water. With this new money also come regulations to support communities who might previously have been unable to secure SRF funds for critical infrastructure improvements and environmental protection. In session 2 of our CWSRF webinar series\, we will discuss what these changes mean\, particularly for disadvantaged and low-income communities\, and what these communities should expect from SRF loans and grants.\n\nPresenters: Heather Himmelberger\, Director; and Shannon Pepper\, Research Scientist\, Southwest Environmental Finance Center\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho Should Attend: \n\nManagers\, owners\, and operators of wastewater systems\nDecision-makers for wastewater utilities\, including mayors\, finance officers\, utility managers\, public works directors\, city councilors\, board members\, tribal council members\, and clerks\nConsultants and technical assistance providers serving wastewater systems
