TCDF to Present ‘Understanding Illinois’ New Corrosion Rules’
January 29, 2021
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency has announced the adoption of new rules designed to help protect and strengthen community water supplies and safeguard the public and environment throughout Illinois. The new rules stipulate that corrosion prevention and mitigation work must be carried out in accordance with defined standards based on industry best practices. These include the use of protective coatings workers trained in corrosion work, measures to prevent environmental degradation, and new requirements for the inspection of corrosion work.
What is included in the new rules and what will they mean for your firm or community? How will they help Illinois communities create healthy and prosperous futures?
Join our webinar for an informative conversation on the new rules and have your questions answered by expert speakers from the corrosion industry.
