Certified Baseline Sampler Training Program Oil and Gas Ohio Pennsylvania

Certified Baseline Sampler Training Program

Due to events like the shale natural gas drilling, new water well development and overall water quality awareness; the need for certified water sample collectors is growing by leaps and bounds to help keep up with the demand for compliant and regulatory water testing. National Testing Laboratories in conjunction with Wilkes University and B.F. Environmental Consultants Inc. is offering a Certified Sampler Program to individuals interested in learning about proper sample collection techniques and chain of custody.

The Certified Sampler Program was developed to address specific collection issues and testing requirements associated with New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia and Texas. We are also gathering additional testing information necessary for testing in Wyoming and Colorado as well. Certified sample collectors are required for any type of water sampling that needs to be collected for regulatory/compliance testing or testing that may have litigation implications.

Who should consider attending this class? Anyone working in the water industry including Water Treatment professionals, Well Drillers, Public Water Supply Technicians as well as Environmental Activists who may want to learn more about the process of water testing. More importantly, anyone who would be interested in being called upon to collect water samples in the field for compliance and/or regulatory testing. Why attend this class? For many reasons, including Water Quality Association (WQA) continuing education credits, additional income sources and lead generation to name a few. At the successful completion of this program, you will receive WQA continuing education credits; a Certificate of Completion from Wilkes University and a Certification of Completion from B.F. Environmental Consultants Inc. on Proper Chain of Custody.

CLIMATE CHANGE:  IS IT REAL?  IS IT A HOAX?

Learn the facts.  Weigh the evidence.  You decide.

The Lackawaxen River Conservancy and SEEDS (Sustainable Energy Education Development Support) are hosting a presentation of The Climate Reality Project on Tuesday, June 19, 2012, at 7 pm, at the PPL Environmental Center, Rte. 6, Hawley. 

The Climate Reality Project is dedicated to bringing factual information about the climate crisis into the mainstream and engaging the public in conversation about effective solutions.  Founded and chaired by Al Gore, Nobel Laureate and former U.S. Vice President, The Climate Reality Project has more than 5 million members and supporters worldwide. It is guided by one simple truth: The climate crisis is real and we know how to solve it.

Presenter Hilde Binford will address climate change as an urgent crisis that must be addressed not simply by altering our personal lifestyle, but more effectively by individuals and communities coming together to develop real, systemic, and innovative solutions. 

Hilde Binford was a member of one of the first groups to train with Al Gore in January of 2007, and she has been making presentations and leading workshops about climate change ever since.  At Moravian College, she co-teaches a multi-disciplinary course entitled Climate Crises: Past, Present and Future.  For the past three years, she has led the college delegation to the United Nations meetings on climate change held in Copenhagen, TianJin, Cancun, and Bonn.

The program is free of charge and all are welcome to attend.

For the record- I never believed in the Global Warming or Global Cooling Concept - I felt that the natural buffering system would become overwhelmed and we would see more significant swings in regional climate, i.e., Climate Change.   Now have we caused or caused to increase faster than nature - I would say - Yes - we are the ones that cut down the forest, put more carbon and other gases in the air - if we were not here on this planet - the Climate and Environment would be significantly different.
