REGISTRATION INFORMATION
The purpose of this event is to:
- To share collections systems knowledge across regions of the United States.
- To better understand what I&I problems are common and what I&I problems are unique to each region.
- To discuss lessons learned to support other I&I reduction programs.
REGISTRATION INFORMATION
Due to the uptick in the number of infections related to the highly contagious Delta variant, and the likelihood of additional measures from local and state governments, including the uncertainty from regional pretreatment programs regarding the implementation of travel restrictions, the PNPW Planning Committee has made the difficult decision of changing this year’s Pacific Northwest Pretreatment Workshop (PNPW) from an in-person event to a virtual one. This decision was not made lightly, but after much debate, and with national and local news regarding the unfortunate trajectory of the variant, we believe we had no choice but make the switch to a virtual workshop. For everyone’s protection and safety, we discussed the situation with the Heathman Lodge, and we are relieved that they agreed to move this year’s in-person event to next year, following a pattern of the same dates and the same month as this year (September 12-15, 2022).
Therefore, the PNPW plans to do the following:
Day 1
Nov 2 (Tuesday)
9am – 1pm
Day 2
Nov 3 (Wednesday)
9am – 1pm
Day 3
Nov 9 (Tuesday)
9am – 1pm
Day 4
Nov 10 (Wednesday)
9am – 1pm
Day 5
Nov 16 (Tuesday)
9am – 1pm
*Note: All times are Pacific Daylight Time (PDT)
For individuals who have already registered and have made reservations at the Heathman Lodge:
Once again, the PNPW Planning Committee regrets having to make this decision, and we hope you understand.
For this year’s PNPW Virtual Workshop, stay tuned for more information. We have to make significant modifications to this event and coordinate with speakers about the new dates. Attached you will find the latest draft of the workshop agenda.
Until then, stay safe and healthy, good people. You’ll be hearing from us soon. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
Best Wishes,
