Design of Onsite (Septic) Wastewater Treatment Systems
Design of Onsite (Septic) Wastewater Treatment Systems
The safe treatment and disposal of wastewater are critically important actions to protect the public from disease-causing germs and parasites. Approximately 21% of United States home use and an unknown percentage of other non-residential users rely on onsite wastewater treatment systems to provide safe disposal of their wastewater. We will present a brief history on the growth of onsite wastewater treatment from pit privies to today’s advanced wastewater treatment systems and the role of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the states when it is proposed for use. We will explain in detail the different components, types, and methods of onsite wastewater treatment systems. There will be a detailed explanation of the importance of in-situ soil to the safe operation of onsite systems, along with some of the evaluation practices used to determine soil characteristics. The importance of the proper operation, maintenance, and planning in protecting groundwater from onsite effluent will also be covered.

Engineering and Surveying – an Uncommon Language
Engineering and Surveying – an Uncommon Language
This course is intended to be of benefit to both surveyors and engineers by removing one of the most common roadblocks to effective collaboration, communication. The class will dissect a design project considering both engineer and surveyor perspectives and discuss specific issues that can (will) arise. Although this class examines a land development project the subject matter and lessons learned are applicable to any surveyor/engineer interactions.
The leaning objectives are threefold:
1) understand survey criteria – what is and is not included;
2) examine the needs of the engineer;
3) understand how to make the two compatible.

Because they are updated periodically, application forms for revising, modifying, and correcting maps are identified in this course but not discussed in any detail. Instead, this course integrates both technical and legal aspects of mapping, to provide an understanding of the technical and regulatory basis for appropriate mapping and map change application approvals.

Geophysical Surveying – Methods and Applications
Geophysical Surveying – Methods and Applications
Geophysical surveying is an applied branch of geophysicswhich uses seismic, gravitational, magnetic, electrical and electromagneticphysical methodologies at the Earth’s surface to measure the physicalproperties of the subsurface. Geophysical surveying methods generally measurethese geophysical properties, along with anomalies, in order to evaluatevarious subsurface conditions such as the existence of groundwater, bedrock,minerals, oil and gas, geothermal resources, voids and cavities, and much more.This course details the various methods used in geophysical surveying andprovides an overview of the many applications of geophysical surveys.
