Water and Wastewater Operators Certification Examinations
The Pennsylvania Section of the American Water Works Association (PA-AWWA) and Pennsylvania Rural Water Association (PRWA) are partnering with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to present the Operators Certification Examinations.   To reach the ultimate goal of increased drinking water and wastewater system compliance with the requirement to have a qualified certified operator, DEP requires testing in order to obtain a license to operate a water and wastewater plant in Pennsylvania.   
 
If you have additional questions please contact Nancy Dinger, PA-AWWA at 717-774-8870 or nancydinger@paawwa.org
