Welcome to the 21st Annual
South Carolina Environmental Conference
“Protecting Our Communities, Protecting Our Environment”
This year’s theme for the 21st edition of the South Carolina Environmental
Conference is “Protecting Our Communities, Protecting Our Environment”.
As Water Professionals, we provide the first and last line of defense when
it comes to providing safe drinking water and protecting our wonderful
environment. Through our work, we insure that our neighbors are protected
from waterborne diseases and that our wildlife and plant life is protected;
we provide the essential conditions that allow the high standard of living
that we enjoy each day; and we provide the basis for the economic engine
of this country through potable water and wastewater handling. Water
Professionals truly are the unsung heroes that quietly serve our neighbors,
our communities, our state and our country.
This year’s conference is another great opportunity to share knowledge with
our fellow Water Professionals; an opportunity to learn new and exciting
technology through our exhibitors’ displays and presentations (a new feature
this year); and to renew old friendships and make new acquaintances. With
over 150 technical sessions on a wide variety of water, wastewater and
stormwater topics, there will be something for everyone and an opportunity to
explore areas both in and outside your specialty and current role.
Water Professionals are truly the life blood of our communities. Join us at this
great conference as we celebrate our successes and renew our commitment to
face future challenges.
See you at the Beach!
