Belgian traffic: the cause of countless missed meetings
It’s no secret: Belgian traffic is a jungle of its own. A standstill with great consequences. Think about the cost of all those postponed meetings and lost working time.
For businesses aiming for future success, digital meetings are the way forward. But the apps used are often just as slow and bumpy as the daily traffic jams. Failing video. Mediocre sound. Lack of features. Sounds familiar?
Time to get smart. Time to get Foneo.

Funeral Homes and Onsite WW Systems

In the State of Kansas, only domestic wastes may be directed to an onsite wastewater system. Domestic waste, as defined by the State of Kansas, includes waste originating primarily from kitchen, bathroom and laundry sources, and includes wastes from food preparation, dishwashing, garbage grinding, toilets, baths, showers and sinks. Wastewater generated from the activities at a funeral home would not fall within this definition. If wastewater, other than that carrying domestic waste, from a funeral home was to be directed to an onsite wastewater system, that system would be considered a Class V industrial waste injection well subject to regulation by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment's (KDHE) Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program.
Information available to KDHE indicates the following wastes are often generated by funeral homes.
Blood and bodily fluids
Formaldehyde
Cleaners and sanitizers
Shampoos
Chlorinated solvents
Infectious diseases
These wastes have the potential to contaminate ground and/or surface water in the following ways:
Blood and bodily fluids have much higher biological oxygen demands and nitrogen content than domestic wastes.
Formaldehyde is a potential carcinogen and may also be harmful to soil bacteria.
Wastewater from cleaning utensils and laundry, and sanitizing the preparation room may contain phenols and mercuric chloride.
Some shampoos used may contain chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Chlorinated solvents are sometimes used for cleaning purposes.
Some infectious diseases are known to be transmissible from human corpses to living humans. Examples include, but are not limited to, rabies, meningococcal infection, anthrax, and Ebola.
KDHE strongly recommends that funeral home waste not be directed to an onsite wastewater system. If feasible, these wastes should be directed to a municipal sewer system. If this option is not feasible, we recommend a water tight holding tank be installed and periodically pumped. If a holding tank is to be installed we suggest the following inquires be made prior to installation:
Ask the local septic tank pumpers if they would be willing to haul this type of waste.
Contact the public wastewater treatment facility to determine if they will accept wastewater pumped from the holding tank.

Environmental Health Video Resources
Environmental health professionals are often asked, “What do you do?” A thoughtful NEHA member has taken the time to search the Web for videos to answer this question and has shared some of those video links with us. We thought these videos would be a valuable tool that you can share with policy makers, community members, colleagues, and even your family and friends. They are also great resources to help orient new employees to what work in this field entails.

Looking for help determining what requirements would be appropriate for a mass gathering, such as a Rock Concert, in terms of number of chemical toilets per amount of people; how much drinking water should be required; trash dumpsters; etc. Does anyone have any pointers?

Do you require a resale inspection of onsite private sewage disposal systems?
Does the governing body complete the inspection or private contractors?
