Water Infrastructure Security Enhancement (WISE) Workshops

The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), along with the Water Environment Federation (WEF) and the American Water Works Association (AWWA), have joined efforts to support the improvement of our Nation's water and wastewater security. Under the Water Infrastructure Security Enhancements (WISE) project, these three organizations have developed a series of voluntary guidelines, thanks to a grant from the US Environmental Protection Agency. In its effort to make these guidelines more widely available to water and wastewater industry professionals, ASCE is sponsoring a set of training workshops based on the WISE guidelines. The instructors of the workshops will be CH2M HILL staff which helped develop these guidelines. Please note that there is no registration fee for these workshops.
