Always wanted to go to Alaska ?—here is your chance !  The Alliance of Hazardous Materials Professionals (AHMP) has announced that the location of its 2012 National Meeting will be in Anchorage !

AHMP normally rotates the location of its annual meetings.  This year in was in the Central part of the country—Austin 2011.  Next year it is scheduled to be in the western part of the country and a unique travel opportunity to Alaska was approved by the Board.  Their research indicated that there many EHS & S professionals that need training but are unable to come to the lower 48 states for training.  These include Oil exploration, pipe line and transportation professionals; the Coast Guard and other government personnel, laboratories and consultants, to name a few.

By the same token, many AHMP members would jump at the chance to go to Alaska.  The meeting will be held at the Anchorage Hilton and room rates are only $159 per night (lower than the recent venues in Atlanta and Austin.) While airfare may be somewhat higher, this can be reduced by advanced bookings.  If you present a paper, your registration fee is waived for the day you present it.  NEOCHMM will most likely be offering some limited assistance to the Chapter delegate and perhaps other key persons attending the meeting. 

Meeting details are still being planned, and will be announced on the AHMP website, but a number of pre meeting and post meeting technical and social excursions are going to be included.  See you in Anchorage !

AHMP is looking for chapter authors, contributors and reviewers for the Third Edition of the Hazardous Materials Management Desk Reference.  The Third Edition will be a substantial revision of the Second Edition published in 2005.  This Third Edition is expected to be available in about 1 to 1 ½  years.

Chapters will be reoriented in a more logical format and designed to be made available on line.  This format will eventually allow easier and more frequent updating as the science, technology and regulations change.  It also will allow students that studying for the CHMM exam to download specific chapters or information for review.   CHMM’s should have faster reference to specific subject matter for review.
Now is the time to show off your technical expertise, to get published and to support the CHMM credential and the AHMP.  Those acting as authors, contributors or reviewers will be eligible for recertification points.
To volunteer your services, please contact Al Arnofsky, CHMM of the New Jersey Chapter or Charles Kubler of the North Star Chapter.
