The Wastewater Collection C course is 30 hours in length and is the entry level course for the FW&PCOA Voluntary Certification Program for Wastewater Collection System Operators.  To receive the Level C certification, the student must attend the FW&PCOA course, pass the FW&PCOA certification examination and document 1 year (or 2,080 hours) of hands-on experience in the operation and/or maintenance of a wastewater collection system.  Students with as little as 6 months of hands-on experience may attend the course and take the certification exam, but the FW&PCOA will withhold certification until the student meets all certification requirements.

The FW&PCOA Wastewater Collection C course examines the basic concepts of a wastewater collection system, including wastewater system inspecting and testing, safe procedures, lift station and equipment maintenance, pipeline cleaning and maintenance, pipeline repair and rehabilitation, and wastewater math.

The course uses two course books, Operation and Maintenance of Wastewater Collection Systems, Volume I and Volume II, available from the Office of Water Programs, Sacramento State University.  Students are required to acquire the course books prior to class.


The course runs from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday, with a 1-hour lunch break. The end of course exam will be given on Friday, starting at 8:00 a.m.

Region 7 will also offer repeat exams for other disciplines on Friday, January 18th, starting at 8:00 a.m., but requires advance registration.  Please complete and submit an applicable exam application.


The course applicant, or exam applicant, has the option of registering on-line or registering by traditional methods (mail, email or fax).  In either case, please complete and submit the course/exam application provided in the course information packet, link follows.
