Operations Challenge
PURPOSE
To recognize excellence in wastewater treatment operations, maintenance, laboratory, safety and collection systems personnel. This year’s competition will be held at the Allen County Sanitary Engineering Department in Lima. An operator training seminar will be held in conjunction with the competition this year. Attendees will have technical sessions in the AM while the teams are practicing and in the afternoon there will be more opportunity for hands-on contact hours during the competition.
COMPETITIVE DIVISIONS
The competition will be limited to the first 10 teams registered. The two divisions function as follows: Both divisions compete “head to head” in all five events. There are no apparent differences in the competition. At the completion of the competition, teams are sorted according to division and then ranked based on a score. A team’s division status will be announced or posted.
Division I (D1) and Division II (D2) Definitions:
Traditionally D1 is composed of previous winners of the D2 and D1 contests, previous year individual event winners, or for any other team(s) that chooses to move up to compete in this division. D2 is traditionally for “new” teams and/or previous year(s) non-winning teams. Teams should apply to the division for which they believe they should complete. However, to balance competition within the divisions and to improve the overall quality of the competition, a final decision of the appropriate division
will be determined by the Event Coordinators and the Operations Challenge Chairperson(s) the day prior to the contest. In no case will the 2009 D1 or D2 winning teams be permitted to compete in D2 for 2010.
REGISTRATION
Team registration is $250. Includes lunch, awards presentation on the day of the event, and admission to the Awards Breakfast at the 2010 OWEA Annual Conference. Application deadline - May 1, 2010.
