Urbanization, in general, increases impervious cover in a watershed. When impervious cover is increased, precipitation does not infiltrate as it would naturally. Instead, rainfall is quickly piped and channelled directly to the watercourse. An increase[...]
This webinar will highlight how designers/engineers are tasked with the impossible: preventing large scale flooding. This webinar is being offered as part of the TRIECA 2020 Webinar Series. To View and Register for the “Entire”[...]
Two-day workshop, November 2 and 6 Monday November 2: 1 – 3pm Friday November 6: 1 – 3pm Overview: Green infrastructure, including low impact development (LID) practices, is becoming an increasingly common approach to stormwater management[...]
Wetlands are an essential part of ecosystems and can be sensitive to changes in water inputs resulting from development. Wetlands can naturally control flood peaks by retaining water and allowing the slow release of water[...]
This webinar presents findings from a three-year field monitoring study comparing the run-off characteristics of simulated lawn test plots receiving roof drainage, located at the Kortright Centre in Vaughan, Ontario. This webinar is being offered[...]
This webinar will discuss all the design and maintenance factors needed to achieve the maximum sediment retention. This webinar is being offered as part of the TRIECA 2020 Webinar Series. To View and Register for[...]
This webinar will cover several topics related to skimmer basin design including, standards for determining the volume of sediment storage and technical guidance on how to model skimmers in stormwater modeling software packages. This webinar[...]
Overview Erosion control can be a challenge even on an easy site, but protecting Low Impact Development (LID) practices, which are designed to infiltrate or filter stormwater for more than 30 years, requires an ESC[...]
This course will be run in 3 sessions December 1 – 9am – 11am December 2 – 9am – 11am December 3 – 9am – 11am Course Description Low Impact Development (LID), an innovative stormwater[...]
This webinar will examine the approach used to build a Stormwater Management Master Plan that integrated flood control and stormwater drainage while improving and protecting both groundwater and surface water quality. This webinar is being[...]
This webinar will highlight research conducted that explores how local erosive rainfall (R-values) in the City of Calgary has changed in the past 20 years, increasing by 2.14 times. This webinar is being offered as[...]
This webinar will address internal phosphorus loading from lake sediments with an alum treatment to flip the shallow lake from a turbid to a clear water state. This webinar is being offered as part of[...]
