2009, February
As part of their twinning partnership, on February 23-26, 2009 in Krabi, Thailand, two experts from King County in Washington State trained 45 managers and staff from Thailand’s Wastewater Management Authority (WMA) on sustainable operations of wastewater treatment facilities. The King County experts shared information on standard procedures and best practices for facility maintenance, operations, and health and safety, and tested the toolkit for improving operations of Krabi's treatment facility. By strengthening management of treatment facilities, WMA and local governments are working to improve water quality and public health throughout Thailand.
