Artists, Photographers & Crayon Scribblers Wanted!
The Clark Fork Watershed Education Program (CFWEP) and Butte-Silver Bow have teamed up to increase stormwater awareness in our community by placing public art on traffic signal boxes throughout Butte. Community members often don’t realize that all of Butte’s stormwater is untreated and eventually makes its way into either Blacktail or Silver Bow Creek. Unfortunately, this means trash, oil, and other materials make their way into these important bodies of water threatening the health of our precious water resources. The goal of this effort is to increase awareness of storm drain connections to our creeks while adding vibrancy to our community through public art installations (cfwep.org).
Here’s where you, your kids, family members and friends come in—we need artwork/photos!
WET is sponsoring four (4) traffic signal boxes in Butte that will be wrapped in artwork. If you would like to submit something, we will be accepting artwork until August 19, 2019. See artwork submission details below.

Last month, Water & Environmental Technologies (WET) welcomed Stephen Coe to the Permitting and Engineering teams. Stephen joined the WET team as a Senior Engineer who will be providing project management and technical expertise, while primarily focusing on developing air quality services within WET. Stephen has a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Engineering and 26 years of industry experience.
When constructing a new industrial facility, expanding production, or modifying operations, owners/operators and facilities may be subject to air quality permitting requirements. Sources must be designed, constructed, and operated to comply with all applicable air quality regulations. Air quality requirements exist within a range of regulatory programs, including state/local, and federal programs such as New Source Review (NSR) and Title V operating permit programs. Technical requirements such as emissions quantification, control technology evaluations, air quality analysis (including dispersion modeling), ambient air and meteorological monitoring, emission standards applicability, and compliance assurance are all components of these regulations.
WET can assist with all phases of the air permitting process, assuring accurate, timely permit applications that are focused on maximum operational flexibility. Expert negotiations with regulatory agencies simplify the permitting process.
