Featured Presentation on Resiliency:
Join Michael Blose, P.E., MBA, and Justin Haynes with Straughan Environmental for an interesting discussion on storm water management, dam resiliency, and planning for the impacts of climate change! Climate change means that storms are predicted to increase in frequency and intensity. What does that mean for our water management infrastructure, including dams?
