The Certification and Training (C&T) Program of the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources, Office of Environmental Health Services (OEHS) continues to oversee the certification of public water and wastewater system operators, backflow prevention assembly inspectors/testers, water well drillers and pump installers statewide. Each
certified operator plays a crucial role in protecting the health and welfare of West Virginia citizens and visitors. It is essential that people receive clean, potable water and wastewater be discharged in an environmentally safe manner. Operator
certification helps protect human health and the environment by establishing minimum professional standards. All public
water and wastewater systems are required to be operated by currently certified individuals.
Please visit http://apps.sos.wv.gov/adlaw/csr/ for the current state laws in effect. You may also call our office to request
mailed, hardcopies of the current rule(s) and related forms. C&T continues to focus predominantly on certification and
exam administration in 2015. However, EED will continue to work closely with WVRWA, WVETC, WV PSC, WVDEP
and other key training providers to support the required initial certification and continued education (CEH) courses.
Please note, all training courses and examinations require prior application, so confirm your registration with the appropriate location and provider contact. Please ensure any training you obtain to renew your certification is approved for water
and/or wastewater operator CEHs in WV prior to attending. If in doubt, ask the training provider prior to registration. To
register for a water or wastewater exam, please submit an EW-102 form 30 days prior. Keep in mind, any certification
course requirement must be completed before the exam administration.
OEHS classes are listed in brown on this calendar.

PSC Training News at www.psc.state.wv.us
The Public Service Commission supports and promotes a utility regulatory and transportation safety environment that balances the interests of all parties and pursues excellence through quality. We do so to ensure that reasonably priced and reliable
utility services are available to all customers, and to increase business investment, job creation/retention, and the state’s overall
economic competitiveness.
With the support of its skilled, knowledgeable and dedicated professionals, the Public Service Commission of West Virginia will
continue to be a nationally recognized leader in utilities regulation and transportation safety. We will work tirelessly to assure:
1. Impartial and efficient resolution of all jurisdictional issues;
2. Public safety through inspections of motor carriers, railroads, and natural gas pipelines;
3. An increase in business investment, job creation/retention and the state’s overall competitiveness;
4. An improvement in the standard of living and quality of life for the people of West Virginia;
5. That consumers receive the best value in utility service from financially viable and technically competent companies;
6. That utilities receive an opportunity to earn a fair return on their investment in regulated services.
The seminars presented by the Public Service Commission of West Virginia are for the educational benefit of water and
sewer utilities in West Virginia. The information presented is to help utility personnel, board or council members and mayors
have a better understanding of the PSC rules and regulations, the West Virginia Code, and sound operations and management
practices.


Registration for seminars will close 14 calendar days in advance of the first day of each seminar. If there is not
sufficient participation (at least 10 participants registered) by that time, the seminar will be cancelled. Participants will be
