November 25 and December 9. Space is limited so register soon! More information: http://www.unh.edu/erg/cstev/porous_asphalt_workshop.html To register online: http://www.erg.unh.edu/stormwater/Onlinereg/register.asp Porous Pavement Workshop Description: Pavements are some of the most prolific structures in the modern U.S. landscape. Traditional impervious paved surfaces have been inextricably linked to adverse impacts on water quality at the regional and watershed levels. Many technologies exist to mitigate these threats, including innovative paving alternatives. Porous pavements are one of the most rapidly expanding practices available for protecting urban watersheds and aquifers. Recent advancements in technical design specifications and improved material selection make porous pavement technologies a powerful tool for engineers and developers facing ever increasing treatment performance standards. This workshop provides stormwater management professionals with the most up to date characteristics of successful porous pavement applications. This full-day training includes field visits to a variety of on-the ground porous pavement installations throughout the region. Participants will learn key design principles necessary to successfully design, evaluate, specify, and install porous pavement for stormwater management. The workshop will be held twice: November 25 and December 9. Space is limited so register soon! The registration fee is $125 per person and includes course materials, transportation, and lunch. Checks should be made payable to UNH and mailed to: UNH Stormwater Center Workshops 35 Colovos Road Gregg Hall, Room 214 Durham, NH 03824 To register online click here: http://www.erg.unh.edu/stormwater/Onlinereg/register.asp ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- Porous Pavements Tour Agenda 8:30 - 9:00 Registration - Welcome Workshop Material 9:00 - 10:30 Introduction, Porous Pavement History, Acceptable Uses, and System Basics 10:30 - 12:00 Field Trip to Surrounding Porous Pavement Sites 12:00 - 1:30 Working Lunch at the Hugh Gregg Discovery Center: Design and Construction Considerations for Porous Pavements 1:30 - 3:30 Field Trip to Surrounding Porous Pavement Sites 4:00 Workshop Ends with Return to UNHSC PA Lot Please forward to those who might be interested.
