Join us for the

Municipal Sewer Grout School

June 5-6, 2024 | Addison, IL

This course is hosted by:

Infiltration is relentless and plagues communities large and small. The goal of injection grouting in municipal sewer systems is to seal joints and defects to stop active or potential infiltration and inflow (I&I) in structurally sound pipes. The consequence of being reactive is far more costly – and hazardous – than being proactive by maintaining and rehabilitating utilizing injection grouts. According to the US EPA, up to 50% of flow to wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) is a product of groundwater infiltration entering the system through pipe joints and defects. This problem increases treatment volume which is absorbed by the ratepayer.


The Municipal Sewer Grout School hosted by Tony Conn and the City of Naperville, IL will help you understand how and why injection grouting stops groundwater infiltration into sewer collections. The two-day session will present technical information on:   

  • Lateral and mainline Test and Seal packer operation and maintenance
  • Mixing and optimizing AV-100 Acrylamide Grout performance
  • Review and demonstration of new NASSCO/ICGC grout specifications
  • Live infiltration and grout sealing demos
  • New grout testing and monitoring information and methods


Attendees will receive:

  • Credit for (10) Professional Development Hours (PDH) certified by CIGMAT 
  • Safe Operating Practices Program (SOPP) certification
  • Training documentation and product collateral
  • Personalized Certificate of Completion
  • Breakfast and lunch both days, and first evening's networking event
