CWACS provides in-depth training for Clean Water Act program implementation and enforcement.  Training sessions are typically 1/2 day to three days and are limited to POTW and state government staff.  Coursework blends theory and legal basis, case studies and hands-on with a strong preference for applied regulatory implementation and compliance.  These training courses will be designed to introduce topics and provide advanced concepts.  CWACS expects that attendees will have an advanced understanding when completing the training sessions.

 CWACS 2012 W-9 for the Finance Department

(1)  If you are not a local government employee but work for a city full time under contract, please contact CWACS prior to registering.  You may be required to sign a non-compete agreement (excludes the city you are working for).  We apologize, but we do not train consultants at this low registration cost.  State employees are approved for attendance.  If no Attendance Limits are specified, attendance is determined by the specific organization holding the training.   

We are applying for CEUs/TUs for certain states.  State approval cannot be guaranteed.  Some states charge a significant fee for this approval.  For these states, unless we fill up the class, we cannot cover those costs and keep the registration low.
