December 10, 2006As most of you know, beginning in January, 2007, backflow technicians testing a backflow preventer on a fire system must register with the State of Colorado, Division of Fire Safety. You can download the application here. November 18, 2006Thanks to all the speakers, vendors and attendees for another successful annual conference! It was a good time for all, with good topics, great information and informative points for all. Take a moment to thank your officers for their hard work when you see them :) The Northern subchapter minutes from November have been posted on this page. November 10, 2006There are proposed changes being made to the Bylaws, those changes are shown in the documents below: Bylaws: Current, Bylaws: Simple Revisions, Bylaws: All Revisions. These changes will be on the ballot being sent to you now for a vote. Don't forget the CBPA Annual conference coming up next week, you can go to the Conference Page here. October 19, 2006The CBPA works with groups in support of community projects, and on November 11, 2006 we are teaming up with the International Order of the Rainbow for Girls.

October 3, 2006There have been quite a few informational requests for the 2006 CBPA Annual Conference, here is the brochure, and check the Conference page which should have updates soon. August 19, 2006There are a bunch of winterization seminars setup by the CBPA, DBC Irrigation Supply and Charlotte in our Northern Subchapter. Be sure and check the Meeting page for a September seminar near you :) May 11, 2006There have been changes proposed to the requirements to test a backflow preventer on a fire sprinkler systems. Charlie Sullivan & Larry Nelson attended those hearing, and Charlie provided this report. It will affect those currently testing backflow preventers, but the wording has been softened to be more friendly to those that test. Also, if you did not check the front page, the new CBPA Bulletin Board has gone live. Please register an account and participate in your organization. May 9, 2006This report was submitted by Byron McElhinney about the ABPA National Conference in San Antonio: The ABPA Conference in San Antonio was a huge success. The silent auction
broke two records; one for the number of items auctioned (49) and one for the
amount of money received ($ 3,040.00). The item donated by CBPA cost us $20.00
and was sold for $55.00. Between the Pre-Conference Reception, Vendor Reception,
Association Luncheon, box lunches, continental breakfasts, Association Banquet
and the barbeque at the Knibbe Ranch, there was way too much food. There are some pictures of your CBPA officers as well, which have been added to the People/Events library. February 11, 2006A new year, where does the time go? You'll find a new link in the left navigation bar linking to the CBPA Forum for Discussion, the officers are trying to provide a format for discussion with members, and to pool ideas for the coming year and Annual Conference. Give it a shot if you haven't joined the BPECC forums yet, as they have provide a spot for us.
