Serious about Sewage – ALCOSAN Open House
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
