CMOM Components & Managing Collection Systems
Tuesday, November 28, 2017
Village of Green Island, Green Island, NY
8:30 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. Sign-in begins at 8:00 a.m.
A sanitary sewer collection system is a vital element of a community’s
infrastructure and a critical component of the wastewater treatment
process. CMOM (Capacity, Management, Operations, and Maintenance)
is a predictive tool and a dynamic framework that provides an active
approach to wastewater collection. The program incorporates wastewater
industry practices to investigate capacity constraints, respond to
sanitary overflow events, and develop capital-improvement plans for
future sustainability. This course covers the following topics:

a hands-on jar testing exercise, students will learn about chemical and
biological phosphorus removal, the effects on operations, and |
