New technologies are introduced, current issues tabled, and roundtable discussions ensue on such topics as plant design or spare parts strategies. The Users Group has become an excellent forum for experienced operators to keep current, to renew old acquaintances, to exchange the "tricks of the trade" with each other, and to impart their hard won knowledge to newer Ultrafiltration operators. Each forum is chaired and organized by a duly selected, representative Ultrafiltration plant operator. Generous hospitality combines with informal experiences and exercises to enhance the esprit de corps between plant operators. All Ultrafiltration plants are invited to send operators representing the plant to participate in the Users Group. GE covers conference, food, and hospitality expenses. The plant must cover the operator's travel and hotel expenses and a small conference fee. GE supports this forum to facilitate interaction between Ultrafiltration Plant Operators and to provide a forum for real-world feedback to GE's management, design and operations staff. The first Ultrafiltration Users Group was formed in the year 2000 bringing together drinking water Plant Operators and the first Ultrafiltration Users Group for wastewater Plant Operators was organized in 2005. Previous User Group meetings have attracted operators from all over North America and from as far away as New Zealand. 7 Duties Ashland Where InSight service is being delivered, GE retains ownership of all software utilized to perform the service.
