The applications of engineering and science associated with cleaning up hazardous waste sites continue to evolve rapidly.

We will make every effort to mirror all aspects of past symposiums in terms of format and spirit. As a SAME event, registration fees will be covered by private sector sponsorships and registration fees. The registration fee is being waived for government employees.
