2022 OMAG DEQ PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT HOURS
Report by Terri Rodina
Beginning in early April, OMAG offered DEQ Professional Development classes across the state of Oklahoma. The training focused on the skills necessary to safely and efficiently clean sewer lines with a jetter. Key Equipment & Supply Company’s Territory Manager, Josh Pandian, and KEG Technologies Southern Regional Manager, Danny Manning, helped sponsor this hands-on training along with OMAG. The class sizes were limited to 25 attendees, who were each able to obtain 4 hours of professional development hours for Oklahoma DEQ license holders. For future class information, please contact William Sheppard with OMAG: wsheppard@omag.org.
“Thank you OMAG, DEQ, and our municipalities in Oklahoma for letting Key Equipment and Danny Manning from KEG, assist you in the 2022 DEQ Refresher Classes. We had a great time traveling the state and providing hands-on information about the latest sanitary system technology and equipment,” Josh Pandian, Oklahoma Territory Manager for Key Equipment & Supply Co. and Quality Rents.
