About Us
The Collection Systems Committee represents operators,
engineers, and managers who work to keep Maine’s wastewater collection systems
safe, reliable, and efficient.
What We Do
• Provide training and continuing education for sewer system
operators.
• Share innovations in collection system maintenance,
rehabilitation, and inspection.
• Recognize excellence through the annual Charles Perry
Award.
• Create a professional community to troubleshoot challenges
like inflow and infiltration, asset management, and public outreach.
Why It Matters
Wastewater collection is the hidden backbone of clean water.
Supporting operators and utilities in this work protects public health,
infrastructure investments, and Maine’s environment.
