SUMMARY:Edmonton December CPANS Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Addressing odour issues using patterns in data \n  \nAbout the Presentation: \nNuisance odours are a major concern in many industries\, causing friction between operators and the communities that surround them. But while odours are easy to detect\, determining the cause and how to fix it is a massive challenge for many facilities. If operators attribute the smell to the wrong source\, they run the risk of wasting valuable resources. \nThe Airdar technology addresses this challenge by applying advanced analytics to ambient concentration data collected at multiple locations\, combined with wind data. This innovative technology has been used to determine the true source of odours and helped to manage them at several facilities. Case studies will be presented from a waste water treatment plant and a compost facility. \nThis presentation will demonstrate how patterns in data can be used to identify sources of odour\, quantify emissions\, and provide operators with actionable information to make informed decisions on managing odour at facilities. \n  \nDate: \nMonday\, December 01\, 2025 \n  \nTime: \n11:30 AM – 1:00 PM \n  \nVenue: \nUniversity Club\, University of Alberta \n11435 Saskatchewan Drive\, Edmonton\, Alberta\, T6G 2G9 \n  \nSpeaker: \nDennis Prince\, MSc.\, P.Eng. \nWith 25 years of experience in emissions monitoring\, Dennis Prince is the inventor of the Airdar technology\, and the CEO of Airdar Inc. Dennis has led numerous projects to remove the uncertainty around odours and other emission-related problems. Dennis obtained a Master of Science in Environmental Engineering in 1993 from the University of Alberta \n  \nCost: \n$40 – A&WMA Members \n$50 – Non-Members \n$15 – Students (includes hot lunch & coffee; GST included) \nWebinar Access: Individual ($20) | Group ($80) \n  \nDetails: \nPlease register by Friday\, November 28 to secure your spot and help us plan for lunch. \n  \nOnline registration and payment options\, including credit card payments\, are available through the links below: \nEdmonton \nMember – $40 \nNon-member – $50\nStudent – $15\nWebinar (Group) – $80\nWebinar (Single) – $20 \n  \nCPANS Edmonton Luncheon Season Pass (2025–2026): \nSave up to 20% with the Full-Season Pass! \nEnjoy all eight luncheons at a discounted rate and secure your seat for the entire season of professional networking\, knowledge exchange\, and great food. \n  \nMember Season Pass: \nRegular rate: $40 × 8 = $320 \nSeason Pass Price: $260 (Save $60) \n  \nNon-Member Season Pass: \nRegular rate: $50 × 8 = $400 \nSeason Pass Price: $320 (Save $80) \n  \nBenefits of the Season Pass: \nGuaranteed seat at all 8 luncheons \nOne-time registration for the full season \nPriority access to speaker presentations (where available) \nDiscounted rate compared to individual registration \n  \nFor Season pass contact Madhan.selvaraj@gov.ab.ca

SUMMARY:Calgary March Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Title: \nThe Cost of Noise \nSpeaker:  \nIan Bonsma\, P.Eng.\, INCE \nWestern Region Manager\nHGC NOISE VIBRATION ACOUSTICS \nAbout the Speaker:  \nIan Bonsma is a senior acoustical engineer and the Western Region Manager at HGC Noise Vibration Acoustics in Calgary\, specializing in noise\, vibration\, and acoustics across architectural\, industrial\, and environmental applications. He has nearly two decades of consulting experience and has worked on major projects such as the YYC Calgary Airport\, SAIT Campus Centre\, and multiple wind energy developments across the Americas. Ian holds a BASc from the University of Waterloo and is a registered Professional Engineer in several provinces. \nAbout the Presentation:  \nEnvironmental noise is rarely treated as critically as are the sorts of emissions that we traditionally think of as air pollutants\, generally due to a lack of consensus on a direct causal link between noise and human health effects. A growing body of research and experiential evidence shows that environmental noise from industry greater than about 45 to 55 dBA can lead to very real and non-negligible costs and should be treated as critically and proactively as any other air pollutant\, rather than as a simple nuisance. This presentation will include case studies from Ian’s more than 20 years of experience in the field. \nDate: \nWednesday\, March 18\, 2025 \nTime: \n11:30 AM – 1:00 PM \nLunches will be served at 11:30am and the presentation starts at 12:00noon \n  \nVenue: \nBoardroom 2\, Platform \n407 9 Ave SE\, Calgary\, AB T2G 2K7 \n Cost: \n$40 – A&WMA Members \n$50 – Non-Members \n$15 – Students \nWebinar Access: Individual ($20) | Group ($80) \nDetails: \nPlease register by Monday\, March 16 to secure your spot and ensure food restrictions if any.
