Talking Under Water Episode 23: Coronavirus & DC Fly-In
In this month's episode of Talking Under Water, One Water, One Podcast, hosts Lauren Del Ciello, Katie Johns and Bob Crossen give an overview of the Coronavirus and what it means for their respective industries. For water quality professionals, it means adjustments for in-home installs and additional challenges faced as a small business; for municipal employees, work still beckons, but the dangers with the virus do not have a lot to do with influent and effluent; and storm water professionals are gearing up for remote work policies and project delays.
Finally, Del Ciello interviewed Kathleen Burbidge, Water Quality Association (WQA) global government and regulatory affairs manager, about the WQA DC Fly-In and the feelings of legislators on Capitol Hill. (Note: This trip occurred prior to the Coronavirus outbreak taking over headlines.)
