A Marriage Of Convenience - WWTPs and Data Centers - why it is a perfect match
The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money Podcast – A Marriage of Convenience: WWTPs and Data Centers - why it is a perfect match With Kiran Mali
In this episode, we talk with Kiran Mali, an impact investment consultant, about the critical intersection of wastewater infrastructure and data centers. Kiran talks about three of the most important benefits of putting data centers next to wastewater treatment plants. First, wastewater treatment plant buildings can be used to meet the need for land for data centers in cities. Second, data centers produce a lot of heat, which can be used to make the process of treating wastewater more efficient. Lastly, data centers need a lot of energy, which can be made up for by using the methane gas that is made when wastewater is treated. This new way of doing things offers a long-term solution that helps both industries. Listen to this podcast to learn more!

– The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money Podcast – What You Don’t know – With Eric DuPre
Eric DuPre the founder and president of Texas Infra Group, LLC.Texas Infra Group specializes in infrastructure solutions products and systems. These innovative systems assist municipal asset owners with sustainable asset management tools using existing data and newly collected data. The data is collected, centralized, and analysed to create visual aids and reports of the overall condition, financial costs, and provide meaningful insight for making informed decisions. This provides the basic foundational elements to build a Smart City platform.
Listen to this latest episode of “The DooDoo Diva's Smells like Money Podcast” where Eric talks about the condition assessment of infrastructure and utilizing grading standards such as ASCE, the oldest and the largest engineering association in the United States. He reviews the engineering analysis process using ASCE on a state-by- state basis to provide a grade of the overall condition of each states’ infrastructure. There are often assumptions due to lack of sharing of local data by municipalities which is creating a disconnect between what is being reported and the actual “state of affairs” and what can be done to correct this so that those responsible for the maintenance and operation of municipal infrastructure, in particular wastewater utilities, can obtain the funding that they need based upon accurate need versus assumed need assessments.
This episode covers:
● American Society of Civil Engineers
● Grading Systems
● Grade Weighs in heavily to the funds that are going to be available to cities

Listen to this latest episode of “The DooDoo Diva's Smells like Money Podcast” where Chad Kalland,Chief Executive Officer at Vecta Environmental Services talks about a LinkedIn article that he posted with the Title “It’s nothing personal, It’s just business”. He shared his personal experience regarding the said article and his own take on that famous line. He said when he hears those words it’s like you’re saying that our relationship is not important, the business is important, and that’s just not the way that he’s been successful in his business. Suzan also added that it almost sounds like a break up when those lines were said, Chad even likened it to the phrase “It’s not you, It’s me. They also talked about why are people leaving companies and why recruiting and retaining talent is becoming more and more challenging. Chad believes that people leave jobs where they don’t feel like they belong. If they felt a personal attachment to our business, they'd be less likely to leave for a dollar an hour. He advised that our job as leaders is to engage our employees, to make them feel part of something bigger than just a pay check.

Every state is different; some don’t even allow you to have an operator alone at a facility unless he/she possesses a license. Tom shares how he and few other members of his team have taken it upon themselves to offer help to new employees to study, train and ask questions to help them be prepared for licensing exams and the benefits of doing so for their operation.
This episode covers:
● Why having a license important

Here, your hosts answer why the answer is a "no," followed by how you can establish trust in today's virtual market, the 80-20 rule of content creation, and what everyone needs to take away from the saying, 'you are your brand!'

About Mary Shafer:

As a commercial copywriter, she learned what works and what doesn't in marketing, and becoming a consultant was a natural outgrowth of that work. She chose to work with small and micro-businesses because that's what she understands best.
Word Forge Books, Mary's publishing division, evolved from her author and marketing experience. Technological innovations have created exciting synergies between marketing and publishing. Her clients have often expressed interest in writing their own books or other publications, so she offers services such as ghostwriting, editing, and custom publishing to help get their messages out in a format that complements their other channels.
Mary's career in the book publishing industry began in 1990. She has written three published books and contributed to two published anthologies. She consults with self-pubbed authors and indie publishers on how to navigate the modern publishing industry as The Indie Navigator (indienavigator.com).
Her publishing colleagues often need help with marketing, so she consults with them from the sympathetic standpoint of another publisher and author who understands the unique pressures they face in this industry, currently undergoing an incredible upheaval. Consulting with authors and indie publishers is the fastest-growing segment of her business, which often involves public speaking at conferences, in classrooms, and in libraries.

Today on The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money Podcast, Mary Shafer helps brief us through why public relations is an evergreen marketing medium. What would Steve Jobs do if he was down to his last marketing budget? From his own words, he'd spend it on PR. Here, Mary explains why you don't need unique talents to create press releases, why you need to learn how to sell to the editor above everything else first, the value of case studies, how visuals help with user experience, and much more.
This episode covers:
· PR isn't as expensive as you think it is
· Marketing is an art and a science
· What is a broiler plate?
· Your website needs to include a 'newsroom'
· What's not great about PR through social media?
About Mary Shafer:
Mary has been a writer all her life and grew up learning marketing and copywriting business in her dad's ad agency. As a commercial copywriter, she learned what works and what doesn't in marketing, and becoming a consultant was a natural outgrowth of that work. She chose to work with small and micro-businesses because that's what she understands best.
Word Forge Books, Mary's publishing division, evolved from her author and marketing experience. Technological innovations have created exciting synergies between marketing and publishing. Her clients have often expressed interest in writing their own books or other publications, so she offers services such as ghostwriting, editing, and custom publishing to help get their messages out in a format that complements their other channels.
Mary's career in the book publishing industry began in 1990. She has written three published books and contributed to two published anthologies. She consults with self-pubbed authors and indie publishers on how to navigate the modern publishing industry as The Indie Navigator (indienavigator.com).
Her publishing colleagues often need help with marketing, so she consults with them from the sympathetic standpoint of another publisher and author who understands the unique pressures they face in this industry, currently undergoing an incredible upheaval. Consulting with authors and indie publishers is the fastest-growing segment of her business, which often involves public speaking at conferences, in classrooms, and in libraries.

Today on The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money Podcast, Chad Smeltzer opens the discussion on the most common problems in government procurement. In the age of digitalization, there's so much that technology can do in the procurement systems of business entities. But at the same time, so much of that potential isn't utilized.

Chad's career began in Wastewater/Public Works at the age of 15 in Wrightsville, PA. After graduating from high school, he entered directly into the workforce. During that time, he maintained several titles such as Senior Technician, Operations Manager, and Account Manager.
Chad created his first start-up company, EPS Products, in 2008, where he used biological technology, called Bioremediation, to break down fats, oils, and grease in sewer systems. EPS Products was later acquired by Duke's Root Control, at which point Chad began a career as a Consultant and a Contractor. He began working with governments all across the Midwest.
In 2016, Chad co-founded a second start-up. Together with a team called Midwest Water Group DBA RMS Utility Services, he utilized new technology to help prioritize collection systems and built a digital asset management software platform. RMS Utilities was acquired by Duke's Root Control in 2020.
Chad's vast knowledge, work history, and experience in the industry led him to his current passion: fixing the local antiquated procurement processes of local and state government with software. He has created multiple digital projects in order to streamline procurement.

Today on The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money Podcast, President of Hydro Products Corp, T.J. Suiter, continues the discussion on the dangers of wastewater work, focusing on risk reduction and the promotion of best practices. Here, T.J. shares his #1 tip to reduce one of the most common risks to jetting, the smart way to conduct audits for companies, and his take on empowering workers to champion safety and sanitation.
This episode covers:
· Investing in safety training, protocol, and devices result in significant impacts
· How expensive can "it's expensive to be sick" get?
· Quiet/Surprise Audits vs. Announced Audits
· To punish bad performance or incentivize good performance?
· The Vanguard System – on CCTV vehicles
About T.J. Suiter:
T.J. Suiter got his start in the sewer and drain industry over 30 years ago when he started a pipe cleaning and inspection business in Denver. The company specialized in residential and commercial work for the first few years before moving into municipal work.
During his off-hours, Suiter volunteered with a couple organizations, including a local hospice. It was there that he began learning about the pathogens he could potentially be exposed to from patients, how they can transfer, and, most important, how to handle them to keep himself and others safe. It was a unique situation, working with raw sewage by day and with terminally ill patients by night.
With new knowledge of pathogen transfer, Suiter started thinking about the dangers posed to those in the wastewater industry. The same pathogens that hospice workers wore gloves, gowns, and face shields to protect themselves from coming in direct contact with were in the wastewater stream, splashing around and getting on workers. And they were often left behind in puddles on the street or yard. So he decided to do something about it to help reduce exposure and protect his team.
The result was the Vanguard Pathogen Defense System.
