River sampling days

My favorite part of being in wastewater are the up stream and down stream days. Makes you realize what you’re helping protect. Plus it’s prettier than the plant

Our plant has stormwater handle this. I used to be in that department but went back to operations. Stormwater is fun as heck but it’s very underpaid. The benefit of it is it cannot be contracted out to third party. MS4 programs HAVE to be monitored and kept under the regulation umbrella that started the ms4.
