Our History

Since 1985, the Tri-State Seminar, LLC (TSS) has been providing affordable, high-quality education to water and wastewater professionals from the western United States through our annual three-day seminar. The seminar is designed to provide continuing education, professional development, and technology transfer to support the mission and vision of our Member Associations; AZ Water Association (AZ Water), California Water Environment Association (CWEA), and the Nevada Water Environment Association (NWEA).



 

activities 2The first TSS seminar was held in Bullhead City, Arizona at the Chamber of Commerce with approximately 100 people in attendance. Moving to Laughlin, Nevada, TSS rapidly grew in popularity and numbers. The event was hosted at the Riverside Resort, the River Palms Resort, and the Ramada Express. 

 After 20 years, the seminar exceeded the resort capacity and moved to Primm, Nevada in 2006.  The seminar continued to grow in popularity and numbers, and after only 7 years in Primm, the seminar found a new home at the South Point Resort Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

In 2024, more than 4,500 attendees joined us from 20 states and 3 countries to attend workshops, tours, and over 200 classes and engaged with over 300 exhibitors. We strive to give you and your employer the very best Bang for Your Buck! Over the three-day event, we provide up to 21 contact hours to our attendees and with a registration fee of $99, that means you and your employer reap the rewards of your continued training at less than $4.75 per hour!
