This is a live, repeat presentation of a webinar that was originally offered on February 15, 2017. Attendees of the previously offered presentation, RV-W021517, will not receive CEU for attending the November 11, 2017 presentation.

Approximately 40% of the World's drinking water is drawn from wells, and in some locations like in the Pacific Southwest, 80% of potable water is drawn from aquifers. Groundwater is an easily accessible resource, and this accessibility is also its biggest threat. Contaminants above ground and underground can easily seep into aquifers. There is a large variety of contamination sources, both natural and man-made. Similarly, there is a wide variety of remediation techniques to properly treat contaminated aquifers. Through this course engineers, architects, planners and contractors will learn about the most common contamination sources and the industry best practices used for groundwater aquifer remediation.

Note: This is a live webinar delivered via WebEx. Session instructions will be emailed to you 24-48 hours prior to the webinar and the morning of the webinar. If you have not received your instructions for any reason please call client support the day of the event. Webinars are live and interactive and students will have the ability to directly interact with and ask questions of the presenter.
