"The
Clean Up: Disasters and the Aftermath of Waste" - March 12-14: Brandon, MB
The 2012 SWANA
Northern Lights Chapter Conference focuses on the clean-up of waste left behind
following recent natural disasters in our communities. From fires and floods to
tornadoes and hailstorms, the Northern Lights Chapter has a lot of experience to
share. Registration at the conference is expected from across
Canada and the
United
States.
In addition to the
discussion around waste and natural disasters, Brandon and the Northern Lights region have
many projects and programs that will serve as a backdrop for discussions,
networking and learning. The new Hazardous Waste Stewardship programs in
Manitoba, Brandon's landfill gas collection system and the re-use of demolition
waste [in many Prairie cities] provide great opportunities to learn more from
our peers and colleagues working in the challenging and rewarding environment of
solid waste.
