Closing for the Season: Seasonal Drinking Water System Shutdown/Startup Procedures & Ensuring Safe Drinking Water (#2024-25 & #2024-26)


Closing, and reopening, your system for the season, specifically for seasonal water systems, can seem overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. Join us as we explore how to make this process as easy as possible, while ensuring safe drinking water for your staff and customers throughout the entire season.

We will kick off this training with steps to take to prepare for closing, and reopening next Spring. Next we will explore Massachuusetts' requirements and certification process before describing how to collect representative water samples. Lastly, we will conclude with tips, tricks, and a robust Q&A. Don't forget your questions!

Class will be held In-Person. Class size varies by location. To allow for adequate training time for each participant, we will be watching registrations closely and update this page if we need to begin a Wait List for either location. Registration is on a first come first served basis.
