You are Invited to Our Leachate Treatment Plant Safari (2-Day Tour) - June 27 & 28

It has been a while since we posted to our blog and sent our email Newsletter to you.

That is because we have been very busy organising a Leachate 'Safari', among other things.

Come along with us and join us on our coach tour around the English Midlands, and the North of England, to bag 7 or 8 "big game"(?) leachate plants on 27 and 28 June (plants visited are subject to final itinerary).

OK, so you are right! The closest to a game reserve that we will get to will likely be a "Reserved for the Site Manager" sign in a landfill site car park. Sorry, but we did not think you would be able to afford the cost, or the time of a trip, to see our plants in South Africa. Also, we wanted to make it at least SOUND more interesting to get your attention! (Tell us if we are wrong!)

In all honesty though, this is a rare and very valuable opportunity, which I think you will appreciate now that we have grabbed your attention.

What we can promise you during this conducted and very full 2 day tour, is the opportunity to see a range of Enviros designed leachate treatment plants, and a range of treatment technologies. You will see them operating, and we would expect the plant operators to join us to tell us about their plants during each visit, just as they have on past safaris (although we cannot guarantee this).

There will also be a number of Enviros leachate treatment experts on the tour and present to ask questions throughout. (These are likely to include Howard Robinson, Steve Last, Martin Carville, and Gwyn Harris.)

All the time, while on the coach there will also be many other leachate and landfill management professionals prsent, making this an unrivalled opportunity for newcomers to talk "leachate management". You will very quickly assimilate a lot of information about leachate, and how to manage it, in real-life situations.

(If you need to remind yourself about the types of biological SBR and related processes we provide just visit www.leachate.co.uk.)

During this trip we will also be celebrating 25 years of leachate treatment consultancy, designing, procuring and tendering, supervising construction, and most importantly TRAINING the future plant operators, while we process commission the plants with them.

Yes, we give all the biological process operating sklls we possess to the staff on site, all the tricks we know to keep the bugs (biomass sludge) treating and producing a superb effluent quality, and commissioning is done all the time with the site staff. At times this seems crazy. Where is the business sense for Enviros in that? After all, once trained we are no longer needed, and not many other treatment plant experts would do this.

Nevertheless, this has been good business for us, and the value of this to our clients is undeniable, and there are always new sites and new clients to design for.

As there is good reason to celebrate, there will be a dinner provided on the first evening in a historic Shrewsbury Hotel, in Shropshire. All meals and transport are provided, and accommodation is booked for you.

Full details are available on our web site at www.leachatesafari.com so please visit that site and register, either on-line or download, print, and send, the completed form on the .pdf copy of our leachate brochure which is available online. There is a small charge to cover our costs, and payment must be made in advance.

Oh! and please do also SUBSCRIBE giving us your email address on that Blog site (www.leachatesafari.com) for our Safari Newsletter so that we can keep you updated, even if you are unsure about attending just now, and just wish to think about this opportunity you should still subscribe for more news at www.leachatesafari.com .

We do hope you will attend this tour. We are looking forward to your company on this trip.

DO BOOK EARLY, though as there are no more than 45 places, and there can only be one coach full only. Miss this now, and it might be another 5 years before there is another!
