The Collection Systems Webcast Subcommittee is seeking speakers and moderators for its next two Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) Webcasts!
We have completed a successful Into the FOG: Part 1 - Programs and Prohibitions webcast on May 30 where we discussed creating a FOG program and ordinance.
The next webcast (Into the FOG Part 2) is on October 24, 2019 from 1 PM - 3 PM and the desired focus is on implementing/managing FOG programs after creation and changes made to established FOG programs based upon lessons learned. This webcast can also include technical components such as control device sizing and siting, or collection system and pump station grease control maintenance and operation techniques. Into the FOG Part 3 is scheduled for December 13, 2019 from 1 PM - 3 PM. This webcast's desired focus is on public education, enforcement and innovative program features. Of special interest to either upcoming webcast is experience with FOG control and enforcement for multi-family units and other rentals, and proper FOG control from establishments in historic districts where device space is limited or restricted.
Each webcast is 2 hours. We are seeking three volunteer speakers and a moderator for each. Speakers are generally allotted 25-30 minutes each. The moderator introduces the webcast, the speakers and relays audience questions at the end. Speakers and moderators must sign a speaker release form, use the WEF slide template for their presentations and participate in a practice call with WEF staff prior to the webcast.
Interested parties please contact webcast chair, Marie Strandwitz at marie.strandwitz@hillsboroughnc.gov, or vice-chair, Nick Anderson at nicholas.anderson@stantec.com, or your favorite webcast subcommittee member with your presentation idea or to pass along another possible speaker.
Part 2 speakers are needed immediately!!! Thank you!
