The Town of Vienna takes a proactive approach to preparing for the winter season. Each year, the town conducts water main break training with staff from its public works department to ensure that both new and seasoned staff are prepared to address breaks quickly, efficiently, and most importantly – safely. The training is led by Water and Sewer Superintendent Emily Goodman.
It’s a good opportunity to give older employees a refresher, give new employees a chance to learn procedures, and bring everyone together,” said Goodman.
The training includes classroom instruction on operational procedures, as well as hands-on training where staff can work with shoring boxes, practice putting bands on, and more.
Hear from Goodman and staff, including Town Manager Mercury Payton, about this proactive training in the video below.
