PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Greetings everyone,

I want to begin by saying how much I enjoy serving as your President. It has been a privilege to travel across Texas and participate in the regional training events. At each event, I’ve noticed a common thread, and that is, most attendees truly value in-person training.

That said, there’s often a catch. Many relay that their employer will not support in-person training unless it’s for a new hire or someone wanting to upgrade their license. Some even say that attending monthly TWAU district meetings is no longer encouraged or supported.

I’m curious, how many fall into this situation?

My goal and the mission of the TWUA Board is to support operators and those seeking to become operators through training. I will be upfront and as transparent as possible here, the electronic and computer-based training is rapidly becoming the go-to source for those in Water and Wastewater.

Why do I mention this? Because the Central Office has started the budgeting process for 2026. Unlike organizations with outside funding or multiple revenue streams, we must be wise stewards of our limited resources.

Let me be very clear - TWUA is not phasing out regional events. These events are organized locally under the TWUA training umbrella, with each region determining how best to serve its operators. The key to all TWUA regional training events is

PARTICIPATION.

Here’s an example of what might go into a typical regional training event. The key to a successful regional event is instructors. Most of those who instruct for TWUA have full-time jobs and use vacation time to share their knowledge and experience.

Based on host facilities and breakout rooms, the region determines that it can host 10 separate training tracks.

Training manuals must be ordered at least 30 days prior to the training date. Kind of a leap of faith when manual orders are placed. Historical data is relied on heavily, but for some, manuals determine class size, and as a result, some classes are thereby limited in size.

Preregistration is strongly encouraged and is part of the advertising goal.

This same region then advertises the event, trusting that the operators and those wanting to become operators in their area will support the live, in-person training event. Some regions provide food, snacks, and refreshments. Food caterers must be contracted months in advance.

On the day of the event, a total of 100 students walked in. You might think that, divided evenly, that’s 10 in each class. What we are seeing is roughly 30 % (30 people) attend Basic Water. That leaves 70. About 40% of those (28 students) attend Safety and Management, leaving 42 students to fill the remaining seven courses. If distributed evenly, that would be 6 in each of the remaining offerings.

Typically, there are Basic Wastewater and Collection courses offered, and let's say a total of twelve (12) students choose to attend the wastewater courses. Not everyone has the necessary experience for dual licensure, which typically results in better attendance in water-related training courses.

This leaves thirty (30) attendees and five (5) other courses. Simple math that is 6 in each remaining course. One region this year had a class with two students.

To cover the average cost of an individual instructor, the equivalent of five students are needed. Manuals cost about $75.00 each. Facility costs vary, but it's safe to estimate between $2,500 and $3,000 per day. Meals (if provided) are $20 each, totaling around $4,000. Additionally, incidentals such as coffee, drinks, and snacks vary, but I estimate they cost about $5 per student per day.

The message I am attempting to relay is that live training these days only works if it is supported by strong attendance and student participation. As I have stated many times, I am a believer and supporter of live-in-person training, and I believe that TWUA events do a great job of keeping costs down.

If we cannot collectively address and resolve this attendance concern, I worry about the long-term viability of regional and in-person TWUA live events. We can face

these challenges together, or we can continue kicking this can down the road and let someone else address the problem later.

Your thoughts and input matter. Please reach out to me or the Central Office to share your thoughts. We want to hear from you.

Thank you, Vicente

Father, we acknowledge you and bow our heads in respect as we humbly say thank You, and proclaim that You are the creator. We take comfort in knowing that You remain in charge and in control of life as we understand it. We need You, and we welcome You in all we do. We come into Your presence seeking Your grace, calm, guidance, and forgiveness. Father, we pray for Your mercy, and we ask that You guide, direct, protect, and bless TWUA and its members. Father, thank you as we offer praise in the name of Jesus. Amen

The drought remains a concern in parts of Texas. Parts of Texas are getting rain, but some watersheds remain dry. In West Texas, Lake Spence sits at 15.2 % (- 0.4 %). White River is sitting at 31.7 % (+ 3.1 %). Panhandle - Lake Meredith is sitting at 43.3 % (+0.6 %), and Greenbelt is at 10.0 % ( 0.0 %). If you want a complete look at current lake levels, go to waterdatafortexas.org. The drought has never left for some.

The summer is an excellent time for TWUA’s Regional Training Opportunities, offering live, in-person training events across the state. The next regional event is August 19th in Longview. Come join Mike Norris and the other like-minded individuals in Longview.

Resiliency – this TCEQ-required training module remains in effect. For TWUA, this resiliency module has been available online and has been offered weekly for some time. Attendance numbers are declining; beginning July 2025, TWUA will offer this training module every other week. There are a total of six resiliency modules. The overview we currently provide is one. The remaining five modules will be available soon and will help meet TCEQ requirements. To simplify – one of the other five modules will need to be completed for each license renewal. The modules can only be used once for the license renewal cycle.

107th Annual School – will occur in Waco, September 9th – 11th 2025. As the Central Office finalizes the events, watch TWUA.org for the release of the final details.

The Story Goes Something Like This –

On this particular day, rain was pouring heavily from an approaching tropical storm. It felt like driving through a car wash. "Turn around, don’t drown" was the message coming from the radio. Instinctively, the driver eased off the accelerator and tightened his grip on the wheel.

The driver stared out the windshield as daylight faded and storm clouds grew heavier. He thought to himself that this setting reminded him of scenes from a horror movie.

Through his windshield wipers, the driver spotted what seemed to be a person in a raincoat walking along the shoulder of the road. As he got closer, a thumb stuck out from the raincoat.

Wondering to himself – why would anyone be out in this weather today? The driver put on the signal light and eased to the shoulder.

The hitchhiker quickly made his way to the front passenger door and asked if he could get a ride.

The driver assured him that he was happy to help. The hitchhiker brushed the water off his coat and climbed in. As he pulled back his hood, the driver could see that the hitchhiker seemed to be in his late thirties and had a wild-looking, thick red beard.

The driver said, You picked an awful time to be out walking.

The hitchhiker did not respond immediately, but sighed and said, “Sometimes situations or circumstances beyond your control put you where you would rather not be”.

The two exchanged pleasantries while the radio played in the background. In between songs, a news notification reported on an escaped mental patient. The hitchhiker said he preferred music to the news.

The driver grunted but did not say anything or offer to change the station.

The newscaster went on to say that the police report a psychiatric patient has escaped from a mental institution and is considered dangerous, with a history of murder and violent behavior. If you see this man, keep your distance and notify the police.

About this time, the hitchhiker said, “Hope you don’t mind, but this news is depressing, and I would truly appreciate it if you could change the station or turn the radio off. These days, there is never any good news.”

The driver did not reply.

"You don’t have to worry. I’m not the escaped killer," said the hitchhiker, fidgeting with his coat.

The driver said no. I mean, of course, you aren’t.

What do you do for a living asked the driver?

The hitchhiker was quiet for a moment, then he grinned and said, I am trying to be a writer.

Have you had anything published that I would know?

Not yet. I guess you could say I'm undiscovered.

Don’t lose hope; I’m sure you’ll catch a break. What are you working on now?

Well, as ironic as it sounds, it’s a novel about a serial killer.

The driver remained silent for a moment before asking, "Where can I drop you off?"

The hitchhiker said nothing, so the driver looked over, and his passenger had his eyes closed.

The two men continued down the road as another news update aired on the radio. We are receiving more information about the escaped mental patient. The killer’s name is Paul Watkins, and he escaped from the state mental hospital for the insane. The escapee managed to steal a doctor’s suit and, pretending to be medical staff, walked out of the facility and drove off in the doctor’s car.

The hitchhiker then said, “I am not sure I caught your name?”

The driver said, “Well, most people just call me Paul.”

HOW TO PREVENT THE TOP 10 DISABLING WORK-RELATED INJURIES

According to the Liberty Mutual Workplace Safety Index, serious, nonfatal workplace injuries amount to nearly $60 billion in direct U.S. workers compensation costs. This translates into more than a billion dollars a week spent by businesses on these injuries.

The top 10 causes of workplace injuries account for almost 50 billion dollars or about 85% of the total cost.

OVEREXERTION INVOLVING OUTSIDE SOURCES

Injuries from lifting, pushing, pulling, holding, carrying or throwing objects accounts for 22% of the national burden when it comes to workplace injuries.  TAKE ACTION: Train employees on the proper way to perform the physical tasks required on the job. Utilize equipment, instead of manual labor, when available. Ensure employees are provided breaks and rest when needed to prevent overexertion.

ON SAME LEVEL

Slips, trips and falls are one of the most common causes of workplace injuries indoors and outdoors. Employees are at risk for sprains, strains, lacerations or worse especially if they fall into surrounding debris that could cause further injury. TAKE ACTION : Ensure non-slip mats and rugs are in use, make good housekeeping a priority in the workplace, repair or clearly mark uneven walking surfaces and train employees on proper cleanup requirements.

FALLS TO LOWER LEVEL

Falls from heights can be from ladders, through floor holes or sky lights, from scaffolding, on stairways, from roofs or from large equipment.  TAKE ACTION: Ensure all employees that work at heights have proper fall protection provided and they are trained on the use of the fall protection equipment including PFAS, guardrails, or other engineered devices.

FALLS

...continued from previous page

STRUCK BY OBJECT OR EQUIPMENT

When there is  work at heights , large equipment is in use, or materials are stored vertically there can be a great risk for employees to be struck by falling objects or moving equipment. TAKE ACTION : All overhead materials should be stored in a secure manner. Caution signs should be used and proper PPE, like hard hats, should be in used when needed.

OTHER EXERTIONS OR BODILY REACTIONS

These injuries are typically non-impact but occur when a body reacts or responds to something unexpected or has an injury due to a vigorous or strenuous effort. These injuries don’t fit into one of the other common categories. TAKE ACTION: Workplace risk assessments can help evaluate common hazards that employees may be exposed to and assist management with prevention and training opportunities.

ROADWAY INCIDENTS INVOLVING MOTORIZED LAND VEHICLE

Employees who drive for business purposes may have more opportunity to be injured in auto crashes and are also  susceptible to distracted and drowsy driving TAKE ACTION :  Define safe driving policies with an emphasis on distracted, drowsy, and defensive driving. Provide employees with safe-driver training.

SLIP OR TRIP WITHOUT FALL

Reaction injuries occur when an employee slips or trips but doesn’t fall down. The stress of the reaction to correct the body to upright can cause muscle strain, twisted ankles, or other trauma. TAKE ACTION: Place no-slip rugs near entrances/exits, make sure any uneven areas are labeled clearly (or repaired), keep all work spaces tidy, and potential slippery areas around the building outside should be cleared.

CAUGHT

IN/COMPRESSED BY EQUIPMENT OR

OBJECTS

Caught-in injuries are one of the top 4 serious incidents that occur in construction and  machine entanglement caught-in injuries  occur most often in factory settings.  TAKE ACTION: Provide protective barriers and train employees on how to recognize caught-in hazards.

STRUCK AGAINST OBJECT OR EQUIPMENT

When employees unintentionally walk into equipment, walls, debris, or furniture in the workplace it is common to have head, knee, neck and foot bruising, sprains and injuries. TAKE ACTION: Ensure good housekeeping is a priority in the workplace, walkways are designated and potential hazards are clearly marked.

REPETITIVE MOTIONS INVOLVING MICROTASKS

Small, repeated movements, like scanning items, typing, or assembling small parts, can lead to muscle strain, tendonitis, or long-term damage to the hands, wrists, shoulders, or neck.  TAKE ACTION: Rotate tasks when possible, encourage breaks, and provide ergonomic tools or adjustable workstations to reduce strain from repetitive motions.

COMMON TIME MANAGEMENT MISTAKES

1. Failing to Prioritize Tasks

What Happens:

People treat every item on their to-do list as equally urgent or important, leading to decision fatigue and wasted effort on low-value activities.

Why It’s a Problem:

You may spend hours completing less critical tasks while neglecting those that truly move the needle.

Solution:

Use prioritization frameworks like:

• Eisenhower Matrix (urgent vs. important)

• ABCDE method (categorizing tasks by impact)

• MITs (Most Important Tasks) – select 1–3 key outcomes per day

2. Overloading the To-Do List

What Happens:

You create unrealistic task lists that leave you feeling defeated when only a portion gets done.

Why It’s a Problem:

It reduces motivation, creates a false sense of failure, and promotes poor self-assessment.

Solution:

• Stick to 3–5 major goals per day

• Add "nice-to-do" items separately

• Track how long tasks actually take for more accurate planning

3. Underestimating Task Duration

What Happens:

People assume tasks will be quick and easy, leading to missed deadlines or incomplete work.

Why It’s a Problem:

Misjudging time skews your whole schedule and increases stress as tasks pile up.

Solution:

• Apply the "1.5x Rule" (if you think a task continued on next page...

...continued from previous page

takes 1 hour, plan for 90 minutes)

• Track how long tasks actually take with tools like RescueTime or Toggl

4. Not Scheduling Breaks

What Happens:

You work for hours without rest, thinking you’re maximizing productivity.

Why It’s a Problem:

Leads to fatigue, decision-making errors, and reduced creativity.

Solution:

• Try structured techniques like:

o Pomodoro Technique (25 minutes work / 5 minutes rest)

o Ultradian Rhythm Breaks (~90 minutes focus / 15–20 minutes break)

• Schedule lunch and short walks into your calendar

5. Multitasking

What Happens:

You toggle between emails, texts, and tasks, believing you’re efficient.

Why It’s a Problem:

Switching tasks actually lowers cognitive performance and increases errors.

Solution:

• Practice single-tasking with full focus

• Group similar tasks (emails, calls, admin) into task batches

• Use “Do Not Disturb” modes during focus sessions

6. Neglecting Daily Planning

What Happens:

You begin the day reactive—responding to emails, requests, or random tasks.

Why It’s a Problem:

You lose sight of your goals and become controlled by external demands.

Solution:

• Plan your day either the night before or first thing in the morning

• Review your calendar and align top priorities with open time slots

• Use tools like Notion, Google Calendar, or Trello for visibility

7. Being a Slave to the Inbox

What Happens:

You check emails/messages constantly and react in real time.

Why It’s a Problem:

This causes constant interruptions, breaking concentration and momentum.

Solution:

• Check email in 2–3 blocks per day (e.g., 10am, 2pm, 4pm)

• Turn off auto-notifications

• Set expectations with colleagues about response windows

8. Saying “Yes” Too Often

What Happens:

You take on too many projects, meetings, or commitments, fearing you’ll disappoint others.

Why It’s a Problem:

You dilute your time and energy, and your own priorities suffer.

Solution:

• Practice polite refusal or delay tactics ("Let me check my schedule first")

• Say “yes” only when it aligns with your goals or values

• Use the “Hell Yes or No” rule: if it's not a strong yes, it's a no

9. Ignoring Energy Levels

What Happens: You try to complete high-focus tasks during low-energy times (e.g., right after lunch).

Why It’s a Problem: Work takes longer, quality drops, and frustration builds.

Solution:

• Track your energy levels throughout the day

• Schedule tough work (strategy, writing, problem-solving) during your peak hours

• Save easier tasks (emails, admin) for slumps (like mid-afternoon)

10. Skipping Weekly or Daily Reflection

What Happens: You rush from one week to the next without assessing what worked or didn’t.

Why It’s a Problem:

Mistakes get repeated, growth slows, and you miss chances to optimize.

Solution:

• Do a weekly review (e.g., Friday afternoon or Sunday night):

o What did I accomplish?

o What didn’t get done—and why?

o What can I improve next week?

• Consider journaling or using a planner with built-in reflection sections

Final Tip: Time management is less about managing time, and more about managing choices, attention, and energy.

Texas Water Operators and Citizens Narrowly Avoided a Major Setback

Texas Water Operators and Citizens Narrowly Avoided a Major Setback

During the most recent Texas legislative session, a significant threat to public health and safety was narrowly avoided. Senate Bill 2702 and its companion, House Bill 4293, proposed allowing individuals licensed or certified by other national training and industry-recognized professional organizations in the U.S. to perform critical backflow prevention tasks in Texas - such as installation, maintenance, and testing of backflow prevention assemblies - without meeting existing TCEQ-specific licensing requirements.

Let that sink in.

Had this legislation passed, it would have created a loophole allowing out-of-state contractors to operate legally in Texas without being required to comprehend or demonstrate proficiency in Texas laws, regulations, or standards related to backflow and cross-connection control. This would have undermined the safety measures that protect Texas's public water supply.

Incorporated Texas public water systems are mandated to adopt local building codes and plumbing ordinances, but they also have the authority to strengthen these codes beyond the state's baseline standards. However, they cannot weaken them. Allowing out-of-state providers to bypass Texas licensing would have compromised this local control, and each public water supply would have tremendous oversight responsibilities.

So what stands as our last line of defense in safeguarding public health and water safety?

• State and local minimum standards

• TCEQ enforcement of those standards

• A TCEQ-issued license specific to backflow prevention assemblies

It's important to note that not all states require a license. Some only require a certification, and not all have adopted the same standards. Texas follows the University of Southern California (USC) Foundation for Cross-Connection Control guidelines, which is considered the gold standard in Texas and is used in approximately 12 states.

The true intent behind SB 2702 was to pave the way for a de facto national license, circumventing Texas's current legal and technical requirements. The bill quietly advanced through the Senate without opposition and was sent to the House for consideration. It was only when a group of informed and concerned Texas industry professionals, such as TCEQ licensed water and wastewater operators, BPAT, and Landscape Irrigators, stepped in that the bill faced resistance.

Thanks to their efforts, the bill was sent back to committee for amendments, where it eventually died due to time constraints at the close of the session.

But this story isn't over.

In just two years, the Texas Legislature will meet again. Those pushing for this legislation will likely return, with broader ambitions. If successful in weakening one Texas-specific license requirement, others may pursue a national license standard for all water and wastewater operators, potentially eroding decades of hard-earned public trust and health protections.

Stay informed. Stay involved. Share your concerns with your state representatives. The safety of Texas drinking water depends on it.

7. BEING PREPARED – Thinking ahead and being ready for what’s next.

8. ENERGY – Bring enthusiasm and a positive attitude.

9. CONSISTENCY – Showing up and doing your best every day.

10. GOING THE EXTRA MILE – Doing more than expected makes you invaluable.

11. HELPING OTHERS – Small acts of service can make a big difference.

12. KINDNESS – Costs nothing, yet means everything.

13. BEING A GOOD LISTENER – Truly hearing people creates strong connections.

14. BEING COACHABLE – Accepting feedback and learning from mistakes.

15. PROFESSIONALISM – How you carry out your job duties and the manner in which others see you leave a lasting impression.

REMEMBER – YOUR IMPACT LEAVES A LASTING MARK. WHAT WILL YOU BE REMEMBERED FOR?
