It is the hope that all particpants leave with knowledge about at least one cross connection item that he/she may not know about or may want to learn more about.

It is also the intention of the Mass Rural Water Association to encourage group participation at this training to foster a more productive and informative discussion.

MassRWA will offer TCH’s for the session and they may be used to meet the Cross Connection Recertification TCH requirement.
