The Pipeline Engineering for Stormwater and Wastewater Systems course equips participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively maintain and repair pipeline infrastructure. Through practical insights and real-world case studies, stormwater and wastewater professionals will learn how to:

  • Identify pipeline defects
  • Navigate agency requirements
  • Manage construction projects
  • Ensure quality assurance
  • Prioritize safety measures

By empowering professionals with the expertise needed to tackle these challenges head-on, the course facilitates cost-effective, timely, and compliant maintenance and repair of stormwater and wastewater systems, ultimately safeguarding public health, protecting the environment, and enhancing infrastructure resilience.

Learning Outcomes

  • Review a project charter that outlines project goals, scope, stakeholders, and deliverables, ensuring clarity and alignment among team members and stakeholders
  • Identify defects in stormwater and wastewater systems through routine CCTV inspections and apply NASSCO defect codes to categorize and prioritize maintenance and repair activities effectively
  • Discuss compliance with agency requirements, including roadway owners, consent orders, county health departments, and other regulatory bodies, by integrating regulatory compliance considerations into project planning and execution
  • Address appropriate contract design and procurement strategies, selecting the optimal procurement method and drafting technical specifications to meet project objectives while adhering to budgetary and regulatory constraints
  • Define and apply quality assurance measures throughout the project lifecycle, including material assessments, CCTV review, site inspections, and maintenance bond acquisition, to deliver high-quality outcomes and mitigate risks effectively
