Technical seminars are open to members
only and held on the last Wednesday of the month. Prior
to the seminar, we have 'happy half-hour' drinks and nibbles.
Please feel free to stay on afterwards and catch up with some of
your colleagues.
There is no charge to
attend.
Wednesday 29th
February.
Bore licensing
issues.
We have had a slight change in
the format of the evening, as a representative from the Office of
Water is, unfortunately, no longer able to attend the meeting.
Instead, we will be running an open forum on the
topic of Licensing issues, including a summary of the new
regulation regarding environmental monitoring bores (covering
topics such as dewatering, remediation extraction, etc). We may
have an opportunity to make suggestions for streamlining the
licensing of environmental monitoring bores – come along and have
your say so that ACLCA is prepared to respond quickly.
Time: 5.00pm for 'happy
half-hour' drinks & nibbles
Venue: GHD, Level 15,
133 Castlereagh Street, Sydney.
Wednesday 28th
March.
