The 2021 Fall Technology
The Department of Environmental Protection now requires that any-
one who has failed an examination three times must take a
“requalification” course prior to being admitted to the examination
again. NJWEA has received approval to provide a series of courses
to satisfy that requirement.
Persons needing to re-qualify S or N license exams must complete
2 days of sessions as follows:
Candidates for S 1 thru 4 and N 1 thru 4 must take the course des-
ignated S1-4, N1-4 on Monday. Then, all candidates for S1 and S2
must take the course designated S1-2 on Tuesday, while all candi-
dates for S3 and S4 must take the course designated S3-4 on
Wednesday.
After the Monday course, all N1 - N4 candidates must then take the
course designated N1-4 on Tuesday,
Candidates for C 1 thru 4 must take the course designated C1-4 on
Monday.
Then, Candidates for C1 and C2 must take the course designated
C1-2 on Wednesday. Candidates for C3 and C4 must take the
course designated C3-4 on Thursday.
A certificate indicating that the applicant has completed the specif-
ic re-qualification course (2 days) will be issued.
These courses are also TCH sessions applicable to License Renew-
al.
proved by The New Jersey State Board of Professional Engi-
neers and Land Surveyors (the Board) as a Continuing Profes-
sional Competency Course Provider. Please check the individ-
ual course descriptions to see what courses will satisfy contin-
uing education requirements for Professional Engineers.
NJWEA will continue to maintain records of the courses offered
and the names of attendees satisfactorily completing the
courses. New York and Pennsylvania Credits for PE’s are as
indicated in the course description.
All issues that may arise on the acceptability of a course will
be between the individual and the Board.
The NJWEA Conference and Exposition is the largest water environment exposition in the Northeast. The event draws participants from throughout the country for four days of training education and offers the opportunity to meet with
manufactures and their representatives in a relaxed, informal setting to learn about their latest products.

Water Resources, PS&S
Jay Surti, PE, Global Biosolids Practice Leader, Greeley and Hansen
The session will focus on the challenge of operating water and wastewater infrastructure in an environment of increasingly un- predictable and extreme weather patterns. Wet weather events capable of dropping 5 to 10 inches of rain, rare a few years ago, seem to be more common today. Tornadoes, long thought of as a midwestern scourge, are now touching down in New Jersey on an annual basis. Water and wastewater utilities must be prepared to adapt and mitigate the effects of the changing weather pat- terns if they are to maintain compliance, protect staff and the community, and lower the risk to critical infrastructure assets. The session will include presentations on the response to Tropi- cal Storm Ida, emergency preparedness, major mitigation and resiliency efforts taking place in the State of New Jersey, consid- eration of extreme weather conditions in the development of CSO control strategies, and a review of several methods WTPs and WWTPs can employ to manage wet weather risks.

The 2021 Fall Technology
The Department of Environmental Protection now requires that any-
one who has failed an examination three times must take a
“requalification” course prior to being admitted to the examination
again. NJWEA has received approval to provide a series of courses
to satisfy that requirement.
Persons needing to re-qualify S or N license exams must complete
2 days of sessions as follows:
Candidates for S 1 thru 4 and N 1 thru 4 must take the course des-
ignated S1-4, N1-4 on Monday. Then, all candidates for S1 and S2
must take the course designated S1-2 on Tuesday, while all candi-
dates for S3 and S4 must take the course designated S3-4 on
Wednesday.
After the Monday course, all N1 - N4 candidates must then take the
course designated N1-4 on Tuesday,
Candidates for C 1 thru 4 must take the course designated C1-4 on
Monday.
Then, Candidates for C1 and C2 must take the course designated
C1-2 on Wednesday. Candidates for C3 and C4 must take the
course designated C3-4 on Thursday.
A certificate indicating that the applicant has completed the specif-
ic re-qualification course (2 days) will be issued.
These courses are also TCH sessions applicable to License Renew-
al.
proved by The New Jersey State Board of Professional Engi-
neers and Land Surveyors (the Board) as a Continuing Profes-
sional Competency Course Provider. Please check the individ-
ual course descriptions to see what courses will satisfy contin-
uing education requirements for Professional Engineers.
NJWEA will continue to maintain records of the courses offered
and the names of attendees satisfactorily completing the
courses. New York and Pennsylvania Credits for PE’s are as
indicated in the course description.
All issues that may arise on the acceptability of a course will
be between the individual and the Board.
The NJWEA Conference and Exposition is the largest water environment exposition in the Northeast. The event draws participants from throughout the country for four days of training education and offers the opportunity to meet with
manufactures and their representatives in a relaxed, informal setting to learn about their latest products.

Water Resources, PS&S
Jay Surti, PE, Global Biosolids Practice Leader, Greeley and Hansen
The session will focus on the challenge of operating water and wastewater infrastructure in an environment of increasingly un- predictable and extreme weather patterns. Wet weather events capable of dropping 5 to 10 inches of rain, rare a few years ago, seem to be more common today. Tornadoes, long thought of as a midwestern scourge, are now touching down in New Jersey on an annual basis. Water and wastewater utilities must be prepared to adapt and mitigate the effects of the changing weather pat- terns if they are to maintain compliance, protect staff and the community, and lower the risk to critical infrastructure assets. The session will include presentations on the response to Tropi- cal Storm Ida, emergency preparedness, major mitigation and resiliency efforts taking place in the State of New Jersey, consid- eration of extreme weather conditions in the development of CSO control strategies, and a review of several methods WTPs and WWTPs can employ to manage wet weather risks.
