The CLEAN WATERWAYS event focuses on improving oil and hazardous materials spill prevention and response on and around inland river systems. This unique event will bring together State & Federal regulatory agencies, operating companies and the planning and response community April 4-5, 2018, at the Hilton St. Louis at the Ballpark in St. Louis, MO.   

We’ve designed the CLEAN WATERWAYS conference to cater to the specific needs of the inland response community.  The conference sessions planned cover topics unique to rivers, such as response planning, crisis communication, the evolving regulatory landscape, and new tools and technologies. Networking opportunities have been built into the schedule so you can interact with fellow attendees from both industry and government to help build successful interagency relationships that are crucial to a successful response in the inland environment.

Event Goals

To serve the spill response industry in prevention, preparedness and response by hosting a forum that facilitates an open exchange of ideas, case studies and best practices for stakeholders from government, environmental, emergency planning and response industries throughout maritime, facilities, rail and pipeline.
