construction and pipe rehabilitation.

Make The Right

Business Connections
At UCT
Greetings!

Underground Construction Technology International Conference & Exhibition (UCT) is the premier business
event in the United States focusing on the total underground utility pipe infrastructure. Whether its
new construction or rehabilitation, utilizing trenchless or conventional techniques, if it has to do with
underground utility piping systems, you'll find helpful solutions and new technologies during UCT,
Tuesday, Jan. 30-Thursday, Feb. 1, 2018 in New Orleans, LA.
Your time is important and at UCT, it really counts. UCT is early in the year, before construction season
kicks off. Attendees can earn up to 30 PDHs during the educational program - this is a substantial portion
of your annual accreditation needs. Exhibitors can network with key decision makers across the entire
underground utility supply chain during the span of one business trip.
We've partnered with CUIRE (the Center for Underground Infrastructure Research & Education) to bring
you its Trenchless Technology Inspector Training and Certification Schools (on Monday, Jan. 29-Tuesday,
Jan. 30). Another partner of UCT 2018 is NASSCO (the National Association of Sewer Service Companies),
which will have its Pipeline Assessment & Certification Program and PACP Trainer Courses before and after
UCT. You'll find details on these programs later in the UCT section.
The primary UCT program (Tuesday, Jan. 30-Feb. 1) features four tracks on Horizontal Directional Drilling,
a special workshop on Municipal Grouting, tracks on Sewer Construction and Rehabilitation, an Engineering
Ethics track and more!
Networking is vital for expanding your business connections. That's why we're offering several options,
close to where you'll be when on-site. The mid-morning coffee service will be located near the educational
sessions on Tuesday and Wednesday. Grab-and-go lunch will be available in the exhibit hall Tuesday and
Wednesday afternoon. The annual welcome reception is moving to the exhibit hall Tuesday afternoon.
Happy hour will be Wednesday afternoon. And on Thursday, you can join your colleagues for breakfast,
before the exhibit hall closes and we say goodbye to UCT until 2019.
Streamlined registration rates offer multiple attendees from the same company the opportunity to learn
and network together. "Bring The Company" to the main UCT program for $495 - this rate is good for two,
to as many as 25, company employees.
The Municipal Partnership Program grants complimentary admission to the UCT main program. This
registration option is for municipal/public works/government employees. And, if your interests are the
exhibits only, you may register to visit the hall for free!
Complete program, registration and hotel information is online at UCTonline.com.
We look forward to helping you get business done in New Orleans!

Strategically timed,
UCT is before
the height of the
construction season.
UCT features North America's
most comprehensive collection
of equipment and technologies
used in rehabilitating the
underground utility piping
infrastructure. Discover,
experience and learn to use
equipment and products by
attending demonstrations in
the RehabZone and in exhibit
booths. Easily source new
contacts from a wide range of
categories in the exhibit hall,
including directional drillers,
liners, CCTV systems, locators,
mud mixing systems, pipe
bursting equipment, pumps
and more. Network during the
receptions. Exchange ideas with
your peers during breakfast.
Read on for more of what you
can take advantage of.
