Upcoming Presentation: When Rivers and Infrastructure Collide

Wylie Gorup

Freese and Nichols’ Kim Patak will present “When Rivers and Infrastructure Collide,” Jan. 23 at the Texas Regional Stormwater Conference in New Braunfels.

Millions of dollars are spent each year repairing America’s infrastructure due to damage from stream erosion. Concepts of fluvial geomorphology, planning and holistic engineering are integrated into the resiliency approach to prevent, protect, respond and recover from problems caused by stream erosion.

This presentation uses real-world examples to outline the benefits of using a resiliency approach to manage infrastructure at risk from stream erosion.
