Attend this session to learn the basics about liquid fuels funding, including how it's allocated, what can be purchased, and where townships can turn for support and assistance. PennDOT staffers will also review recent audit findings and explain how your township can avoid similar LFF mistakes.

The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) provides funding that municipalities can use for a wide range of infrastructure and public health priorities, including clean water and climate resilience. But navigating the range of opportunities available to maximize local benefits can be a challenge. This webinar will summarize federal guidance for the use of ARPA funds for water quality, flood resilience, and land protection projects, with an emphasis on how this limited funding can best be used to meet long-term community needs. Attendees will walk away understanding the top ten ways to use ARPA funding to benefit your stormwater management program.

This instructor-led flagger training will be conducted for individuals who have flagging responsibilities on ANY ROAD OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Others who would benefit from this course include: utility companies working on low volume roads, law enforcement personnel, municipal managers and elected officials (to understand the importance, and for budgeting purposes). This course has been designed to meet the PennDOT Publication 408 flagger training requirements mandated for all flaggers in Pennsylvania.

This virtual training workshop will review CMV/CDL employee and vehicle paperwork, including pre-employment inquiries regarding a CDL applicant's records in the FMCSA Clearinghouse; requests for CMV driver's license information from PennDOT; annually reviewing each CDL drivers records in the Clearinghouse; CMV daily vehicle inspection, maintenance, and repair reports; the employer's required policy on CDL drug and alcohol testing; and a general overview of all the CDL regulations.

With a capital improvement plan, municipalities can take the guesswork out of infrastructure investment, identify their highest priority needs, and ensure they have the funds in place for repair and replacement before failure or regulatory action puts them at risk. Capital improvement plans are also a valuable tool for obtaining grants and loans. As Washington considers a major infrastructure funding bill, now is the time to get your capital improvement plan in place. Find out how in this 1-hour webinar.

Virtual Training Class - State and federal regulations require every employer who has CDL employees driving vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating or operating weight of more than 26,001 pounds used on public roads to participate in a drug and alcohol testing program. These same regulations also require that such employers train all personnel who supervisor employees with commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs) in handling suspected on-the-job drug or alcohol use. This workshop addresses these federal requirements by providing supervisory personnel with a working understanding of the federal CDL regulations, including on-the-job probable cause procedures.

Municipalities often need to know what is underground or underwater before building a new road, repairing or mapping utility lines, constructing a new building, or determining the extent of a sinkhole -- to name a few examples. Geophysics, the earth-science equivalent of medical radiology, can help save municipalities time and money (as well as maximize safety and minimize liability) by detecting what’s beneath the surface before construction or repairs begin.

This three-day event was created just for you — newly elected (or veteran) supervisors, other newly elected officials, and new secretaries/managers.
