Advanced System Curriculum Update
Members of the Iowa Onsite Waste Water Association completed their fourth quarter of developing a curriculum for maintaining advanced onsite systems. The association uses the Habitat for Humanity site in Waverly to pull monthly effluent samples from 12 systems and to work with manufacturers videotaping maintenance procedures. Orenco, Bio-Microbics and Quanics systems were taped in the latest session. Funding is through a $100,000 USDA grant. Once completed, the materials will be available for nationwide operation and maintenance training programs.
