This year’s Kentucky Tennessee Water Professionals Conference (KY/TN WPC) will take place September 8-11 at the Kentucky International Convention Center in Louisville, Kentucky. SSR is thrilled to see many of our clients, friends, and industry partners at this event.  

 

Hosted by the Clean Water Professionals of Kentucky & Tennessee (CWP-KT) and the Kentucky/Tennessee Section of the American Water Works Association (KY/TN Section AWWA), KY/TN WPC provides networking opportunities, engaging technical programming, and innovative equipment exhibitions for attendees and exhibitors in the water sector. Attended by over 1,700 professionals from hundreds of different companies, utilities, and organizations, the conference is a common venue in which to learn, share, and understand collaborative solutions to water sector challenges.
