Be NutrientSmart (NSmart)! NSmart is a proposed voluntary program to recognize water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs), and their watershed partners, progress towards reducing nutrients in waterbodies. The EPA Office of Water and the NSmart Steering Committee are hosting an interest and information webinar to introduce a proposed voluntary recognition program for POTWs, WWRFs, communities, and other stakeholders and potential partners that have reduced or are working towards reducing nutrient loadings to streams, rivers, lakes, and other surface waters. As one of these stakeholders, we would like to provide you with background and answer your questions on the different ways to participate and be recognized as NSmart and gauge your interest in NSmart. We want to know how best to engage with you and make recognition valuable to you, your ratepayers, partners, and local communities.

There are two opportunities to participate in the webinar:

• Monday, January 14, noon-1pm (EST)
• Wednesday, January 16, 3-4pm (EST)

*Please Note: when you select a date and time in eventbrite should adjust to your local time

Please RSVP to this invite and join us to learn more on how to get recognized for your hard work and nutrient reduction accomplishments.

If you have any questions about the event please reach out to Mary Reiley at Reiley.Mary@epa.gov

Who should attend:

• Wastewater Utilities,
• POTWs,
• Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs),
• Other stakeholders interested in nutrient reductions to surface waters

NSmart’s Goal: The proposed program’s goal is to encourage and recognize the adoption of enhanced nutrient management practices by water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs) and their communities. It would also acknowledge work that has been done to date and facilitate further efforts through peer to peer communications, information sharing to members, and watershed approaches.
