Certain chemicals that are used to treat water fall under hazardous materials regulations. Aqua wants to be sure that its employees are familiar with these materials and know how to handle them properly. It is essential that they be transported properly and safely in order to protect the environment, the employees, the general public and first responders. Finally, the company cares about protecting the environment. Following the regulations is critical.
