PCBs in Building Materials Awareness & Removal Webinar

Join us for an online webinar about polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in building materials to learn about what PCBs are, the threats they pose, how to know if your building is at risk of containing PCBs, and how to approach this issue if you suspect they may be in your building.

Hosted by the Seattle and Bellevue 2030 Districts, this comprehensive workshop will cover: (1) the dangers and risks associated with PCBs, (2) their negative impact on human and environmental health, (3) stormwater management BMPs and how to comply with new regulations, and (4) best practices for testing, reporting, and disposing of PCB-containing materials.

This free event is supported by the Washington State Department of Ecology and the EPA Puget Sound Geographic Funds through the Stormwater Strategic Initiative.

What to Expect:

• Presentation & Q&A: Gain insights on key topics informed by environmental professionals and remediation experts, followed by an interactive Q&A with special guest speaker, Dave DiSimone (Toxics Reduction Unit Supervisor for the WA State Department of Ecology’s Hazardous Waste and Toxics Reduction Program).
• Gain Access to Valuable Resources: Attendees will learn about regulatory requirements, best management practices, and resources developed by the WA State Department of Ecology and the EPA for identifying and managing PCB contamination effectively.

Whether you're a building owner, contractor, property manager, environmental professional, or simply interested in learning more about PCBs, this event provides the tools and information you need to contribute to a safer, healthier environment. Register now to secure your spot!
