Welcome to the website of the

Central Illinois Professional Wastewater Operators

Mission Statement: Dedicated to the education and training of its members in order to ensure safe working conditions and protect the environmental quality of East Central Illinois. Region wide efficiency and effectiveness will be achieved through group interaction and support.

 
General Information : 
11/14/08 The Fall Meeting of the Board was held in Champaign, IL today. Topics discussed were the Annual Winter Meeting and Speakers as noted below this article. In addition the topic of the Newsletter was discussed and it seemed to be a consensus that the Newsletter is too problematic and as reported by our Secretary-Treasurer earlier this year too expensive to continue.

Attempts have been made to address the former yet delivery has and is an on-going issue. The latter could be addressed by increasing dues, but the Board would prefer to not do that at this time unless duly necessary.

What has been proposed instead is to use this website as a replacement for the Newsletter. By doing so costs are no longer at issue yet the problems of access which plagued the Newsletter are also resolved simply by visiting this site. Additionally, all members can and are being added to an email notification list to inform them of when this site is updated. Thus giving a much faster access to the News of the Organization than could be accomplished by any periodical.

Discussion was also given to a mail-out with this website URL to better facilitate getting the word out to the membership. You can bet this will be a topic for the Business Meeting in January.

CIPWO Winter Meeting will be held on Wednesday January 28, 2009.

Location will be at the Holiday Inn at Urbana, IL.

Sign-up will be from 9:00 AM -10:00 AM.

Directions: Just off the Lincoln Ave. Exit From I-74 on Killarney Street

Speakers will be: (In no particular order)

Dan Marsh, Illinois Sustainable Technology Center, University of Illinois
Topic: Strategic Energy and Water Reduction (Initiative)

Dan Simpson, Bernardi Securities
Topic: Alternate Method(s) for Project Financing

Old News
2/3/08 CIPWO has embarked on a new step to improve communication among it's members by creating this website.

If you are already a member of CIPWO please pass the word of this website to our fellow members.

If you are not a member of CIPWO and wish to be, and are employed in the wastewater field in the East Central Region of Illinois, please feel free to contact us by email. (Address below)

  Editor's Note
7/15/08 As additional information concerning this site I'd like to take this opportunity to mention a few things that we plan to do with it.

Mailing List: We can and will add anyone to a mailing list to inform you when this site is updated which will allow you to obtain organizational updates in the fastest way possible. It would merely require that we have your email address on file.

Vendor Recognition and Links: We hope to offer a Link Page from this website for all of our contributing vendors that would take our members (and anyone visiting this site) directly to their business's websites. I feel it is important to support those that support us. Without our vendors many of the things our organization enjoys would not be available.
