POWTS Evaluators

 

The Wisconsin Onsite Water Recycling Association has developed a two-day training course and certification for septic system professionals - the Private Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (POWTS) Evaluator Certification Training -  to teach the proper techniques for conducting evaluations of existing private onsite wastewater treatment systems. This innovative two-day training class, which concludes with a certification exam, provides much-needed uniformity around the state for POWTS evaluations and helps to ensure that consumers are receiving a high-quality evaluation of their systems.

 

The course includes both classroom instruction and field training. Some of the topics covered during the course include: WOWRA Certified Existing POWTS Evaluator ethics, policies and requirements; evaluator/client relationship and responsibilities; evaluation procedures from data collection through final reports; and procedures for evaluating recent, documented POWTS, as well as the unknown POWTS. General POWTS knowledge and experience is necessary. Upon completion, participants will receive certification as a WOWRA Certified POWTS Evaluator in Wisconsin.
