The Gulf Coast chapter
held a dual track meeting in Conroe on November 19, 2009. This meeting
represented twin "firsts" for us; the dual track was a first
and it was also a first for pre-registration. Even though the OSSF track
was not approved by TCEQ untiil the day before the meeting, we managed
69 attendees for the day-long session. There is apparently a need for
more of this kind of OSSF training statewide, so this year we expect
to expand our program and mailing to attract more of these professionals.
Our food/general
environmental track was attended by another 80 or so sanitarians and
environmental investigators.
We also registered
42 new members (including some renewals).
A good time was
had by all.
