When Solid Waste Facilities (and Managers) Save the Day

August 24, 2023

SWANA is hosting a webinar titled “When Solid Waste Facilities (and Managers) Save the Day” on Tuesday, August 29 beginning at 2:00 p.m. EDT.

Join this SWANA webinar to hear tales of when solid waste facilities and managers saved the day during local disasters. In times of crisis, facilities become part of the public conversation in communities and get the attention of residents, elected officials, emergency operations centers, top management at the municipal level, and even the media.

SWANA members will share stories about the amazing work that has been done on the cleanup after fires and floods and will discuss lessons learned and best practices. In addition, participants will explore how to look around the corner to prepare for the next disaster.

Speakers include:

  • Elizabeth Roe, Eco Partners
  • Anastasia Welch, SCS Engineers
  • Heidi Gerlach, Dillon Consulting Ltd.
  • Cameron Baughen, Baughen Consulting Ltd.
  • Eric Miller, Neal Road Recycle and Waste Facility
  • Sheri Praski, SWANA Northern Lights Chapter

We look forward to seeing you next week for this exciting webinar!
