This may be one of the most unique events I have stubled across in the past 3 years. ALCOSAN is hosting a day long open house on September 20, 2008.

ALCOSAN is the Allegheny County Sanitary Authority

They have tons of exhibts planned for the open house, here are a few of the ones I found most interesting…

• an hour long tour of the sewage treatmant plant
• a look at what micro organisms exist in sewage
• Photos with the ALCOSAN mascot – Frankie the Fish
• Virtual Sewer

Saturday, September 20, 2008
9 a.m. – 4 p.m.
