The Seminar will provide a deep dive into how Operations and Maintenance (O&M) best practices can improve water quality and resiliency, and lower compliance costs for your MS4 permit. The Seminar will review the role of O&M in meeting MS4 permit requirements, in Asset Management, in best practices after construction, in Green Infrastructure practices, and in the use of GIS and databases in O&M.
