Group 3: Water and Wastewater Management

Another goal of the CCWF is to research and promote implementation of sustainable methods of water and wastewater treatment that are cost-efficient and ecologically sound. Construction projects such as traditional wastewater treatment plants can be extremely expensive and damaging to surrounding ecosystems; there are more passive systems that can be constructed that will create the same level of water quality with significantly lower cost and environmental impact. The CCWF aims to promote sustainable water and wastewater management throughout the watershed.

To learn more about statewide water and wastewater treatment practices, visit the Colorado Water and Wastewater Treatment Network. This is a newly formed interactive share point website that is being hosted and developed by the CCWF and sponsored by Coors Brewing Company. Since pure water is a key ingredient to the health and sustainability of our watershed, our goal is to protect water resources here and throughout Colorado. The purpose of this website is to provide Colorado water and wastewater professionals an avenue to exchange information and technical knowledge about their operations, to enable operators to help each other troubleshoot and problem solve with other professionals, and to provide increased training opportunities for all. Membership is free and members gain access to:

• information on water, wastewater and in situ treatment; as well as engineering, service and equipment supplier
• full interactive website access for your entire team
• your own facility web page
• shared knowledge and experience
• mentoring
• expert advice
• training opportunities
• member facility tours
• current industry news
• member contact and process information including photos and flow schematics
• library including books, publications, photos, forms, documents, and training materials
• quick links to water and wastewater related websites
