Safety
How does your Safety Program compare to other programs around the state of Ohio!
In order to increase the level of safety in the wastewater industry, the Safety Committee of the OWEA conducts a safety recognition program to reward systems with good safety programs. For the year 2011, there are three possible levels of recognition:
- OWEA SAFETY CERTIFICATE
- OWEA SAFETY AWARD
- WEF BURKE AWARD
You can read more about the award selection process and how to properly complete your award package by viewing the 2011 Safety Award Application. Please keep in mind the application and all supporting documents must be submitted to your Safety Committee member by February 17, 2012.
