ADEC – Classifying Water and Wastewater Systems

When designing a new water treatment / distribution or wastewater treatment / collection system it is important to understand the certification level the operator will need to have to operate the system. The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC) has but together a few worksheets to help engineers determine the classification level of the system they are designing. It is recommended to reach out to ADEC to review the filled out worksheets and confirm the official system classification.

ADEC – Sewage Lagoon Closure Plan Requirements

When planning for the future closure of a Sewage Lagoon it is important to review the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation’s (ADEC) requirements. The ADEC requires closure plans be submitted for approval at least 60 days prior to the intended closure of a lagoon. The closure plan must be approved by the solid waste program prior to the actual closure of the lagoon.

Though the EPA has provided many checklists for a variety of different situations the following are ones that we believe are most useful to Utilities in Alaska:
