Chester Water Authority Continues Its Commitment to Employee Training

Chester Water Authority (CWA) announces that 10 of its employees in its Distribution Department have recently been awarded Class E certification by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP).  The employees are:

 

Kevin Brown

Dave Krupiak

Chuck Cartisano

Dale McNeal

Larry Cowan

Tole Michel

Dave DePrince

Terry Nacrelli

Mike Greek

Jesse Richardson


The certification program recognizes a combination of work experience, education, and demonstrated knowledge. Each applicant must first pass a PA DEP-administered test.  After passing the test, the applicant must obtain a PA State Police background check.  Once all of these criteria are met, application for certification is then made to PA DEP, which reviews all applications and makes recommendations to the State Certification Board.  The State Certification Board makes the final determination as to which applicants receive certifications. 

 

Every water utility must have a certified employee on staff to make process control decisions.  CWA is unique in that, as part of its commitment to employee education and training, it encourages all of its qualified employees – not just treatment plant operators – to achieve certification.

 

CWA is a municipal water authority, providing drinking water to over 41,000 residential and business accounts (over 200,000 people) throughout southwestern Delaware County and southern Chester County.
