as long time stewards in the water and wastewater industry, we have witnessed inspiring stories on what we as water Professionals can accomplish when we work together. as we consider the numerous tasks in which our members take part, we acknowledge that we all have the same end goal...to produce and provide safe water for our communities, and to clean and dispose of water appropriately for the environment. we cannot do it alone. what we do certainly depends on the help of others.
one clear image of “working together for water” this year has been our Conference Management Committee (CMC) working to put together 3 full days of packed opportunities. several new things have been put into place to help make this year’s conference experience a fulfilling one. we are introducing Conference-level sponsorships and several companies have agreed to show their support for our conference and our mission. we are now utilizing the web for online abstract submission in preparation for this conference. we are premiering multi-hour workshops on sunday for water, wastewater and stormwater, and for the first time in the history of the conference, we will be traveling offsite for our Grand Finale, taking in one of Myrtle Beach’s newest and sought after shows! it is amazing to see what all takes place behind the scenes of such a successful conference and we are very proud of the CMC for their hard work and planning; they are another great example of what working together for water really means.
in addition to all that’s new this year, keep in mind that this conference is a great opportunity to share knowledge
with our fellow water Professionals and brings a chance to learn new and exciting technology
through our exhibitors’ displays and presentations, renew old friendships and make
new acquaintances. Feel free to peruse this flyer and get an idea of what’s available for you at the 2012 sCeC! with over 146 technical sessions on
a wide variety of water, wastewater, and stormwater topics, there is something for everyone and an opportunity
to explore both in and outside your specialty and current role.
We hope that you wil l take ful l advantage of al l that’s planned and we look forward to seeing you at the C onference!
Welcome to the 22nd AnnualSouth Carolina Environmental Conference!

P lan to start early on sunday!
Q u a nt i f y i ng s t o r m w at e r Q u a l i t yCalling all builders, developers, designers, stormwater engineers, elected officials, planners, public works staff, watershed councils and other professionals with a stake in the rapidly evolving nature of stormwater management.
This fast-paced workshop will provide a 4 1/2 hour tour covering critical stormwater quality regulations and the application of Low impact development (Lid) design. emphasis will be placed on the actual modeling of Lid applications with hands on examples demonstrated using the ideaL (integrated design, evaluation and assessment of Loadings) Model, a water quality software program.
The workshop will have four distinct focal points:
10:00 aM to noon Part 1 – stormwater requirements 1. water Quality regulations history 2. nPdes Permitting
Part 2 – 303(d) impairments and total Maximum daily Loads (tMdL’s) 303(d) Facts south Carolina 303(d) List tMdL Facts south Carolina tMdLs tMdL Liabilities tMdL Costs
noon to 1:00 PM Lunch – on your own
1:00 PM to 3:30 PMPart 3 – Low impact development (Lid) 1. introduction to Lid 2. Basic Principles of Lid 3. Lid Best Management Practices
Part 4 – Lid engineering 1. Calculations and Models 2. ideaL Model 3. example Problems
i nstr umentat i o n & C ontr o l W o r ksh o pThese days every water or wastewater system utilizes an assortment of instrumentation to monitor a variety of process parameters including pressure, flow, level, turbidity, chlorine, ph, dissolved oxygen, suspended solids, and sludge blanket level. in order to ensure the accuracy of these instruments it is important that preventive maintenance is periodically performed and that each instrument is regularly calibrated.
The purpose of this workshop is to provide a fundamental understanding of the basics of instrument maintenance and calibration for the most widely used instruments. during the course of this workshop certified instrument service technicians will provide instruction on how to maintain and calibrate the most commonly used instruments.
10:00 aM to noon Part 1 – analog instrumentation 1. introduction to analog signals (M/r systems) 2. Pressure transmitters (endress + hauser) 3. Magnetic Flow Meters (rosemount) 4. Ultrasonic Level transmitters (siemens Milltronics)
noon to 1:00 PM Lunch – on your own
1:00 PM to 3:30 PMPart 2 – analytical instrumentation 1. turbidity Measurements (hach) 2. Chlorine Measurements (hach) 3. ph Measurements (hach) 4. sludge Blanket Level (Cerlic) 5. suspended solids Measurements (Cerlic)

Water System Auditing & Loss Control Technical Session:
are you frustrated with utility expenses outpacing revenues?
are your utility customers upset that they are being asked to conserve, while perceiving they are paying for the system’s
inefficiencies? Best-practices for water auditing and Loss Control, as developed by the american water works association, are
beginning to take hold among water systems in the southeast and across the nation. water auditing and Loss Control programs
are the most effective ways for a utility to conserve water, save operating expenses, and increase revenues. The state of Georgia now
requires water auditing from its public water utilities, and policymakers in Kentucky, tennessee and Virginia are considering the Georgia model. in
north Carolina over 30 systems have recently embraced these best-practices for water auditing and Loss Control, and the results are compelling.
Join us sunday Morning at 10:00 for “water system auditing and Loss Control session”, for an overview of the awwa water audit methodology, a
review of the awwa Free water audit software, and a presentation of system data from 31 southeast, and 21 national Utilities who are implementing the
water system auditing methodology. The presentation will leave you informed on the latest tracking and benchmarking trends in the industry.
