Greeley PWO - 2026
5/14/2026
This year, Greeley's PWO focuses on the additional "effluents" we deal with in our industry: solids and air! TAC reporting requirements, hydrogen sulfide as a PTAC, and TENORM updates had Greeley busy over the past year, so it felt important to provide several presentations on things we have learned, what we've been able to address, and how we anticipate preparing for future beneficial use. Also included this year is a trivia session, and a visit from our area's 208 planning agency manager to discuss benefits and challenges with 208 planning, and how effective it can be for this agency to participate in the greater regulatory conversation. General treatment and design talks are sprinkled in throughout, hopefully providing highly valuable discussions around various topics we all deal with on a regular basis!

Greeley kicks off the event with the help of Alicia Gilley (B&V) and Zeke Havard (City of Greeley), discussing the status of their solids master plan, and Greeley's plans for future beneficial reuse and solids management upgrades. Mark Thomas (North Front Range Water Quality Planning Association) follows up with the Regional 208 Planning and Regulatory Participation Update. After a short break, we shift gears slightly to address the use of 3D surveys throughout design and construction and into operation and maintenance, with Andrew Stewart (Merrick) providing examples of LiDAR completed for Greeley pump stations. 

Madeleine Harris (Eagle River Water & Sanitation) highlights the first emissions conversation of the day, discussing How a Greenhouse Gas Inventory Can Help Identify Efficiency Trends and Opportunities Across Your Utility. Our PWO's first attempt at a trivia session follows, focusing on Northern Colorado water and sewer sheds, regulations within, and some publicly available factoids about treatment plants in the area. 

What's lunch without dessert? We follow up the day's lunch with a discussion on CAKE! Bob Dabkowski (Process Optimization) brings his insight on dewatering optimization, a process which inherently generates some odors throughout. To address those odors, Greeley presents alongside Sarah Vander Meulen (Dewberry), investigating odor sources at Greeley's WTRF. Kayla Reed and Tyler Eldridge (City of Greeley) continue the conversation, diving into the fun world of air permitting, emissions calculations, and modeling. With hydrogen sulfide fresh on the brain, the conversation segways into treatment of H2S in biogas as Tyler Dougherty (Carollo) presents on various technologies to help in this area. The day's closing remarks hit closer to standard operational discussion, as Pat Radabaugh (Dewberry) takes us home with a discussion on how an effective power play is necessary for a deep Avalanche run in the playoffs; I mean, carbon management, yes, a closing discussion on carbon management options at the JD Phillips plant in Colorado Springs!

Come join us for the day's events, plenty of coffee and food, and claim those TU's. Or simply come to socialize and be overloaded with information, in case that isn't already happening enough in your day-to-day.

Cheers!
