Technical Engineering Webinars

At NTH Consultants, Ltd., our passion is to exchange thoughts and ideas that contribute toward improving our nation’s infrastructure and environment.  Every quarter, we ask a couple of our industry experts to share an hour of their time discussing the latest developments in their field of expertise. These events have been a fun way for our staff to connect with many of their clients, and an opportunity for our clients to stay abreast of important industry happenings. 
  
Below you will find a link to all of our recorded webinar events. If you would like a PDH (Professional Development Hour) certificate for watching one of our videos, please contact Lisa Dilg at ldilg@nthconsultants.com. 

Upcoming Webinar

Our Q4 Webinar will be posted shortly. Please bookmark this site for updates.

Emergency Action Plans – Don’t Panic: Be Prepared 
​One of the unfortunate characteristics of aging underground infrastructure is the inability to easily assess and predict when a system will fail. Modern improvements in inspection and maintenance processes of underground systems have made positive impacts on the overall condition of our infrastructure, but they cannot eliminate sudden sewer system blockages or failures. Having an established Emergency Action Plan can greatly reduce response times and help lessen the ancillary impacts associated with system failures. This webinar will discuss the components of a well-developed Emergency Action Plan and why it’s important for all communities.

Renewable Natural Gas Project Development ​

​​​As the country progresses toward low or zero carbon in the energy and transportation markets, demand for alternatives to traditional fossil fuels are providing opportunities to divert methane from landfills, farms, wastewater treatment plants, or food waste operations into Renewable Natural Gas. Incentives driven by the federal Renewable Fuels Standard and state-specific low carbon fuel standards are being seen across the U.S., including the Midwest. RNG plants convert waste-derived landfill gas (LFG) or digester gas and other organic wastes into a source of clean and reliable energy to be used as a transportation fuel or to heat and power homes and businesses. This webinar will step through the regulatory and permitting pathway for successful development, design, and approval of RNG.
