Spend the morning reviewing wastewater collection systems, including reviewing examples of the math – conversion formulas, calculating flow, refresh yourself on the chemistry of sewers and on the safety and operation aspects of a collection system.  Spend time preparing for the exam then in the afternoon take the exam.  The exam is limited to review registrants only.

IMPORTANT: Each registrant will need to separately apply and receive a Letter of Admission (LOA) from the IEPA to take the proctored exam. Registrants should submit their exam request forms 30 days prior to the exam to ensure that a LOA is processed. If registrants have not submitted their LOA on or before September 28th or received their LOA before October 28th, they will NOT be allowed to take the exam.
