WQRA's state-based Node Meetings give us an opportunity to provide local updates on recent events, and provide members with an opportunity to connect with with other local members and WQRA staff.
The recent WQRA Node Meeting for South Australia was held at the Mawson Lakes campus of UniSA.
The meeting included updates from WQRA Drinking Water program Manager Dr Michele Akeroyd and Education Program Manager Ms Carolyn Bellamy. Also on the agenda was an interesting presentation from Dr Paul Monis on WQRa Project 1035, which looks at rapid molecular methods for the detection and identification of microorganisams in water. After the meeting, attendees had an opportunity to tour the of the Laboratory for the SA Water Centre for Water Management & Reuse.
The meeting also provided an opportunity for updates from members and a chance to highlight issues for the future.
