The education you will receive at CLEAN WATERWAYS is extremely beneficial, though you may need to validate to management your reasons for wanting to attend. You also may need to present management with the health and safety features in place in order to get approval to attend. CLEAN WATERWAYS has compiled a justification toolkit that will help you with those needs. When speaking with management, stress the sessions you will attend, the types of people you will meet, and the companies you will visit in the exhibit hall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few ideas to include when compiling your request:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
