The deadline for earning Continuing Education Units (CEU’s) for water treatment, water distribution and/or wastewater license renewal is March 31, 2015. Grade I and II operators need to earn 1 CEU (10 hours) and Grade III and IV operators need to have earned 2 CEUs (20 hours) of IDNR approved courses by the deadline.
Operators who hold both a water treatment and distribution license need to earn the required CEUs mentioned above but no less than 25% of CEUs can be earned in one area. A Grade I or II Water Treatment and Distribution operator will need to earn a combined total of 1 CEU in treatment and distribution and no less than 2.5 hours of the required 10 hours can be earned in one area. Operators only certified in one license, either treatment or distribution, must earn 1 CEU in the area they are licensed.
Remember that only 20% of the required CEUs can be earned in safety. A Grade I or II operator can earn 2 hours and a Grade III or IV operator can earn 4 hours towards license renewal by attending safety workshops/classes.
Safety CEU courses are denoted in red when reviewing your CEUs on IDNR’s Operator Certification Database and can be accessed on their website. If you are unsure if the future courses you plan to attend to meet your CEU requirements are safety courses, please check with the course provider or Laurie Sharp at laurie.sharp@dnr.iowa.gov 515-725-0284 or Jane Enfield at jane.enfield@dnr.iowa.gov 725-725-0463
