October 2005 WasteCON 2005 Credit Hours for TCEQ Licenses

WasteCon 2005 was a success in spite of the concerns caused by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita.  Texas solid waste license holders who attended courses and/or technical sessions during WasteCon 2005 need to insure they receive credit for their attendance during the WasteCon 2005 conference.

David Hernandez, with SWANA, is continuing to work with the TCEQ to insure that the Texas attendees will receive proper credit.  Attendees should do the following:

1. All attendees should ensure that they have completed and submitted an approved for to SWANA.  SWANA was accepting completed forms at the end of WasteCon, and SWANA will continue to accept completed forms by fax prior to Thanksgiving day.  Attendees who have not submitted a completed form to SWANA should print off a blank form from the SWANA web site at http://www.swana.org/pdf/swana_pdf_352.pdf.  Attendees should completely fill out the form and be sure that the form includes the attendees name, signature, TCEQ solid waste license number, and the hours of classes and/or courses that were attended.
   
   
2. Before Thanksgiving, all signed CEU forms and the completed TCEQ form should be faxed to ATTN:  Certification Coordinator, Subject:  TCEQ Hour Request, at fax number (301) 589-7068.  Faxed forms will be collected by David Hernandez at SWANA, and attendance will be checked and verified.
   
   
3. SWANA will forward attendance records to the TCEQ in their required format to facilitate the proper posting of credit hours for the WasteCon 2005 attendees.

TxSWANA appreciates the cooperation and efforts by SWANA and the TCEQ to facilitate a quick and efficient posting of credit hours for Texas solid waste license holders, and TxSWANA extends a special thanks to David Hernandez, with SWANA, and to Linda Saladino, with the TCEQ, for their assistance on this project.
