Because of the importance of getting solid information and continuing education, B.F. Environmental Consultants will be providing information on webinars and webcasts that are critical to environmental professionals and professional in the areas of water treatment, design, building, engineering, alternative energy, and environmental management. The following is a partial listing of our available webcasts:
Commercial Solar Power Systems
Fossil fuels won’t last forever and using them often pollutes our world. Solar energy is renewable; it’s clean; it’s free. You can lead the way to a future where solar energy power systems provide electricity in clean, efficient ways.
Design of Water Efficient Buildings This interactive webcast will discuss approaches for conserving water including water efficient building technologies, simple systems for recycling and reusing water on site, and how to drastically decrease the demands on shared supplies. This course will also discuss the many great environmental and economic benefits to water efficient buildings. We will conclude with details on LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) criteria for water efficiency, plus additional case study examples on innovations in wastewater treatment and reuse.
Introduction to Wetlands
This interactive webcast will provide a basic understanding of wetland ecology, types, functions and management. We will discuss the economic, environmental, and social importance of wetlands. This course emphasizes wetland ecology, wildlife needs, enhancement of wetland functions, wetland determination, design and implementation, management, and monitoring considerations.
Technology advances with the passage of time. The existence of portable and digital processors provides proof of this advancement in technology. There is a rising demand for enhanced equipment such as geo-pressure control and administration, contributing to the need for an additional degree of drilling machinery monitoring or observing, mud circulation pressure, volume, and flow ratio sensors. This course discusses drilling data monitoring and drilling data analysis, the types of recorders used to monitor, rotary system management and circulating system management, and properties of mud.
This interactive webcast explores the concepts of downcycling, upcycling, precycling, and recycling. In an era of resource conservation, the idea of reuse is paramount to meeting sustainability goals. We will introduce green-minded professionals to the concepts of downcycling (reclaiming), upcycling (refashioning), precycling (reducing waste), and recycling (reuse). We will focus on the environmental, economic, and social benefits of these four types of waste prevention. In addition, we will look at the relationship between waste reuse and technological advancement.
Irrigation Practices for Commercial and Residential SitesThis Webcast is a full-spectrum discussion of irrigation practices. We'll start with history, discuss fundamentals, move on to proper design, and finish with alternative approaches to traditional irrigation methods. You'll receive valuable information on effective, efficient irrigation methodology for all residential and commercial needs.

Webinars - Scheduled ( December 2013) - see November 2013
Professionals associated with site, building, or neighborhood planning, design, and development have a unique charge to make ethical decisions with the welfare of both the environment and citizens in mind. The goal of this three-hour webinar is to expose professionals to some of the most common ethical considerations within planning, design, and construction professions and give the opportunity to learn how to create a built environment that improves the quality of life of a community while adhering to simple strategies to facilitate ethical practice in the work place.
December 4, 2013, Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design: Surveys & Floor Plan Reviews, 12pm-2pm EST
This webinar will introduce CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design), as it pertains to professionals assisting their clients to design or obtain safer built environments. Students will understand the CPTED strategies so that they can incorporate them based on clients’ needs or better understand the strategies when dealing with security planners or consultants. Displayed examples will include physical security surveys and architectural plan reviews so that after-market security countermeasures can be reduced or eliminated.
The goal of this webinar is to expose students to the importance of accessibility rights and develop a thorough understanding of accessible legal provisions.This webinar will focus on the Architectural Barriers Act of 1968 that requires facilities designed, built, altered, or leased with funds supplied by the United States Federal Government be accessible to the public.
December 12, 2013 -Big Changes, Big Impact: LEED v4 & the Future of Green The US Green Building Council has just unveiled its 4th version of the LEED certification standards known as LEEDv4. In this webinar, we will focus on the differences between LEED v4 and its predecessor, LEED 2009.The presentation will cover the reasoning behind the new update as well as describe new credit categories and the changes that are to be implemented per individual credit. The webinar will examine LEED v4 technical content and point distribution.
