Join water professionals from across the Midwest at
the Minnesota Section of the American Water Works Association’s (MN AWWA) 99th
Annual Conference in historic Duluth, MN on September 16th-18th. The
conference will continue the Minnesota AWWA’s focus on educating attendees on
water quality and treatment, and public health, safety, and welfare.
The
conference will feature excellent technical sessions from university
professors, engineers, and specialists on topics ranging from blending groundwater
and surface water, to 3D modeling of water systems, to retrofitting water
treatment systems to disinfection using ozone to achieve algal toxin and odor
control.

place at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center overlooking the beautiful
