Dear Sir or Madam,

in this September issue of the UNITRACC Newsletter we will keep you posted on the latest news in the world of underground infrastructures - as usual.

Furthermore we would like to turn your attention to the numerous conferences and exhibitions which are taking place all over the world after the summer break, such as ICUEE - the International Construction and Utility Equipment Exposition targeting water and wastewater utility equipment and products (6 - 8 October, Louisville, Kentucky, USA) or the International Conference & Exhibition for Filtration and Separation Technology Filtech 2009 (13 - 15 October, Wiesbaden, Germany).

Another interesting event - I would sincerely like to recommend - is Promoting Trenchless Technology in Middle East from 9th to 11th November 2009 in Abu Dhabi. Use the opportunity to exchange experiences with other experts. I will also be on location as a key speaker and would gladly meet you there.

Enjoy exploring the underground with UNITRACC.

Dr.-Ing. Robert Stein
(UNITRACC Editor)
