Brian Murray began his career as a water treatment apprenticeship through Vermont Rural Water’s program. He is now the Lead Operator for the Town of Middlebury and is training the water system’s next apprentice.
It is important for operators to receive enough training to understand the science and mechanics behind the treatment processes, but unfortunately not everyone receives this training. Vermont Rural Water offers apprenticeship opportunities for water, wastewater, and distribution operators.
Wayne Graham compiled some of his favorite tips and tricks from 17 years of “Yankee Ingenuity.”
Several apprentices have recently graduated from Vermont Rural Water’s Apprenticeship Program, and new individuals are beginning their apprenticeships.
