e·ro·sion: the process, by which soil particles are detached and transported by the actions of wind, water, or gravity.
Whether you're working on a construction site, doing a municipal inspection, starting a stream restoration project, doing a site walk at your industrial facility, or just taking a hike through nature, you've probably encountered first hand this natural process (or sometimes mankind assisted process) which can wreck havoc on your storm water program as well as create awe inspiring scenic views. In this year's Storm Water Awareness Week, we are going to be highlighting the topic of EROSION with several specific keynotes and workshops directly geared toward providing you important information, education, and tactical plans for managing erosion at your jobsite, city, or facility.
If EROSION isn't a major concern for you, don't worry! As always, we will have a broad range of storm water related workshops for you to pick and choose from. So stay tuned for all the incredible workshops available this September during Storm Water Awareness Week!
Bonus perk - it's completely free!
to anyone, anywhere, at any time
