State Water Board report finds the tons of food waste California is sending to landfills can easily be rerouted to local water resource recovery facilities. Net benefit to the State could be $255M per year and will reduce greenhouse gases.
Let's get co-digesting!

Last call for our 'SYP Geography and Climate" webinar featuring Dr. Roger Bales! Come join us on August 25th at 12:00p.m. in this students and young professional led webinar. During this webinar, we will examine the temperature and precipitation patterns that define the state's climate as well as explore how the steep gradients in the Sierra Nevada shape our water resources. We will also assess how past droughts inform future water-security challenges and project how important source-water areas will respond as climate continues to warm. Lastly, we will consider how the state's water balance is changing.

Introducing our Fuel Tank Management & Monitoring Program webinar presented by CWEA-SARBS!
There are countless of fuel tanks that are used for day-to-day operations and fuel powered generators to support buildings. Having access to fuel tank inventory, especially in an emergency situation, is not just common sense, it is a requirement of the California Energy Emergency Response Plan and Federal Energy Commission Emergency Planning Program. Let TankVisions create or be a valuable contribution to your Emergency Storage Tank Administration Program.

Breaking #wastewater news: CDC ramping-up Federal efforts to help local public health agencies and wastewater agencies test sewage for #COVID19.
"Sewage testing has been used to find other diseases, such as polio, and to determine the prevalence of opioid use in some U.S. communities. Some public health experts, including Dr. Ashish Jha, director of the Harvard Global Health Institute, have suggested utilizing sewage testing for Covid-19, saying it’s a cost-effective strategy to track the coronavirus and predict outbreaks." - CNBC article

Introducing our Environmental Career Journey and AAEES Board Certification! This free webinar by our partner AAEES will feature the amazing CWEA President Wendy Wert from LACSD. During this webinar geared towards early career engineers as well as those further along the profession, she will be telling us her story, from her background to how the Academy and AAEES Board Certification helped her navigate her way through the options and opportunities encountered which led her to where she is today. She will also be discussing on AAEES testing and the certification process.
Besides learning about Wendy's inspiring story, the objective of this webinar is to communicate the importance of becoming board certified in the environmental engineering and science field. This webinar will be especially important for graduate and undergraduate students as well as early to mid-career environmental professionals who are considering specialty certification.

Sounds like an epic team effort by EBMUD Friday night into early Saturday morning after unannounced PG&E power outage strikes WWTP in Oakland.
"EBMUD employees worked through the night to restore pumping capacity... however flows exceeded storage capacity ... from 3:47 a.m to 3:58 a.m." https://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2020/08/15/rolling-power-outage-triggers-oakland-estuary-sewage-spill/
Boaters were being warned Saturday to stay away from the Oakland Estuary after an estimated 50,000 gallons of raw sewage spilled during a power outage Friday night at the East Bay Municipal Utility District wastewater treatment plant in West Oakland.
CWEA's Students and Young Professionals Committee is proud to host a Geography and Climate Webinar with Dr. Roger Bales. Our wonderful speaker Dr. Bales will talk about temperature and precipitation patterns that define the state's climate, exploring how the steep gradients in the Sierra Nevada shape our water resources, and assessing how past droughts inform future water-security challenges. He will also project how important source-water areas will respond as the climate continues to warm as well as changes in the water balance in the state. Ask Dr Bales your climate and geography questions.

Last post for today, I’m off the clock at 1500. We called in an extra grit dump today due to the influent line cleaning maintenance task performed this morning. Typically we will fill two of these dump trucks a week with accumulated debris removed from the wastewater stream, each truckload is an average of 10,000-pounds of trash that is hauled away to the landfill. This week it will be three truckloads. Have to be careful to dodge the splashing/flying material as it drops! #CAWaterWeek #WomenInWater #instagramtakeover with Amanda Bird, Santa Cruz WW Treatment Facility @pandalarabird
Shutting down the dewatering centrifuges for the day. The machines have an auto-wash feature to flush them out, it’s my task to hose down the truck bay to get it clean in preparation for tomorrow’s dewatering. #CAWaterWeek #womeninwater #instagramtakeover with @pandalarabird
