Federation of New York Solid Waste Associations launches first ever virtual conference

The Federation of New York Solid Waste Associations has announced a virtual conference running October 15, 22, and 29, 2020. The Federation of New York Solid Waste Associations Conference with Trade Show meets annually in May at The Sagamore, Bolton Landing, NY. Due to COVID 19, the conference was canceled.

Instead, the association will offer a virtual event, featuring an engaging technical program taking place over three days as well as sponsorship opportunities. The virtual conference technical sessions will offer Professional Development Hours (PDH) and SWANA Continuing Education Units. Topics will include COVID 19 Waste Industry Responses, PFAS, Recycling Markets, Operational Odors, Extended Producer Responsibility and Power Generation.

"2020 has been a year of adaptation and the Federation of New York Solid Waste Associations is glad to be able to offer professionals in the Solid Waste and Recycling industry the cutting edge education and training opportunities virtually that they have come to expect from our annual conference," says Federation Chairperson Bruce Howie, P.E.
