Hydrant/Valve O & M and Foundry Tour

Hydrant/Valve O & M and Foundry Tour 

We’re excited to offer this special event in partnership with East Jordan (EJ) and MI-AWWA to support our Northern Region members. This unique opportunity allows attendees to compete in the Best Tasting Drinking Water Competition and earn Continuing Education Credits (CECs). With no Regional Water Seminars scheduled in the area for 2026, this limited-capacity event offers a valuable opportunity for training, networking, and friendly competition in a more focused setting.

This event is structured around the Best Drinking Water Tasting Competition, and all attending public water systems are required to participate by submitting a sample.

Currently there is a 4-person maximum per public utility.   If you have more than four that you would like to attend, they will be added to a wait list.
