The Association aims to encourage a friendly exchange of information in an effort to support continuous improvements to the provision of water and waste services provided to the northern public.

Construction and development in Ontario generate millions of cubic metres of excess soil that must be transported across the province each year. The movement and relocation of soil must be properly managed to mitigate negative impacts on communities and the natural environment.

On December 4th, join the Canadian Urban Institute (CUI) and experts from industry, government, NGOs and academia to discuss how we are working together to develop solutions for better excess soil management, including best practices for implementing the proposed provincial regulation

CUI will convene the 2019 Ontario Excess Soil Symposium to address:

• Benefits and challenges of excess soil reuse for municipalities, communities and the development industry;
• Updates on excess soil policies and regulation; and
• Lessons learned from case studies and pilot projects.

Featured speakers include:

• Hon. Jeff Yurek, Minister, Ontario Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks.
• Nicholas Willenbrock, Joint Manager, CL:AIRE
• Karim Hosny, Lead Environmental QP, Crosslinx Transit Solutions
• Dr. Francine Kelly-Hooper, Environmental Contaminant Scientist, Stantec
• Meggen Janes, Director of Soil & Ground Water Management, Waterfront Toronto
• Jeff Goldman, Principal, SoilFLO

This event features CEUs, keynote speakers, 5th Annual Tradeshow, Water Cup Challenge , and an opportunity for professional development and networking opportunities.

The International Conference On Water Management Modeling (ICWMM) brings together professionals from around the world to exchange ideas on current practices and emerging technologies in water management. Emphasis is on state-of-the-art computer modeling for resolving water quantity and quality problems in stormwater, wastewater, watershed and water distribution systems.

Presentations are of a very high standard and the atmosphere is informal and relaxed. And, by accepting abstracts up until the last minute, a spontaneity is achieved which gives the conference its special character.

Effectively the 53^rd SWMM users group meeting, this is the 40^th meeting to be held in Canada, and the 29^th in Toronto.

Abstract submission deadline is February 1^st, 2020.
