Virtual Workshop: Impacts of Climate Change on Private Wells We are hosting a virtual workshop—Impacts of Climate Change on Private Wells With a Focus on Groundwater Depletion, Micro- biological Contamination, and Saltwater Intrusion—aimed at addressing the impacts of climate change on private drinking water systems and wells. The workshop will feature presentations and a roundtable discussion led by subject matter experts that will focus on groundwater depletion, saltwater intrusion, and microbiologi- cal contamination. Participants will have the opportunity to share experiences, challenges, and opportunities while earning continu- ing education contact hours from NEHA (up to 3 hours). We will also host two learning sessions to provide ongoing technical assis- tance, connecting workshop graduates with experts specializing in mitigating climate change impacts on groundwater. The virtual workshop will be on September 12 at 12:30 p.m. ET. Register at https://neha.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_ycli G5taQdOMMzMIKo6YTQ#.
