We proudly support and work with the organizations listed below and will be attending their upcoming workshops and events.
The workshop entitled "
Nitrogen, Septic Systems, Great Bay and Why it Matters," to be held on the morning of Tuesday October 31, 2017, is the culmination of a four year project we collaborated on with the Rockingham and Strafford County Conservation Districts that piloted a passive treatment technology (Passive Reactive Barrier or PRB) to remove dissolved nitrate from shallow groundwater in Brentwood and Durham, NH.
We will review the nitrogen cycle in groundwater and surface water, present information on nitrate-reducing septic systems and review the pilot PRB project and present lessons learned and applications in the region. We hope to see you at one or more events!
