Here's what trainers are saying about Wastewater Treatment Fundamentals I - Liquid Treatment:

“I reviewed this manual (Wastewater Treatment Fundamentals I—Liquid Treatment) and find it to be an excellent study guide. I conduct two certification preparation classes annually and my primary source has been the Sacramento manuals - Volume 1 and 2, which I provided to each candidate. My plan is to switch over and use this manual for my classes along with the Trainer’s Kit. My belief is that it would be very beneficial to other utilities throughout Tennessee.”

Johnny McDonald, Operator, Nashville Metro

“After spending time with the textbook and getting a good feeling, I am planning to use them in my one-year program. I plan to develop a curriculum for the first semester based around the textbook. With the volume 2 pending release next year, I am sure I will be using it for the second semester. The course and textbook, Wastewater Treatment Fundamentals 1: Liquid Treatment, are a wonderful upgrade to the training spectrum for operators in our career field in Illinois and throughout the country.”

Ricky Lallish, Program Director of Water Pollution Control at the Environmental Resources Training Center, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville
