Torrent is kickstarting a new webinar series unpacking key topics, hot trends and new technology in the environmental testing industry. We are starting the series with a deep dive into stormwater testing. The webinar will focus on the basics of stormwater testing, why it’s done, its impact on the environment and the regulations around it.
The intensification of extreme weather patterns across the U.S. is leading to more frequent storms. Apart from the obvious damage and disruption, the flooding and saturation resulting from this extreme weather pose significant risks. Stormwater, which may appear harmless as it flows down drains during heavy rain, actually carries a dangerous mix of pollutants. These include carcinogens, industrial chemicals like PFAS, pesticides, heavy metals, and other contaminants that threaten both the environment and public health.
Join us as we delve into why testing stormwater has become crucial for protecting our waterways and ensuring that regulatory standards are upheld, and maintaining a clean and safe environment.
