Agenda
An Introduction
to Stream Restoration Using Natural Channel Design workshop was
held on January 21 & 22 in Huntsville, Alabama at the Winfred
Thomas Agriculture Research Station.
This 2 day workshop introduced principles
of fluvial geomorphology - the science of stream channel dynamics.
Participants will learn about stream processes related to channel
formation, field assessment, techniques to identify bankfull stage,
the Rosgen classification system for natural streams, channel evolution,
and restoration options for impaired streams. Dr.
Greg Jennings of North Carolina State University will
emphasize stream conditions specific to the southeastern U.S. Case
studies will be presented to demonstrate effective natural channel
design techniques. Workshop instructors have experience working
on more than 40 stream assessments and restoration projects throughout
the Southeast. Each participant will receive a reference manual.
* This workshop has been approved
for 1.15 CEUs from Auburn University
and 10 Continuing Forestry Education

Agenda
Storm water regulations in Alabama and across the
country are targeted on BMP design.
· But which "Best
Management Practices" really work the best?
· Which design techniques are most effective?
· What site considerations have the greatest impact on design
efficiency?
The Storm
Water BMP Academy will address these storm water
management questions while looking at innovative urban and suburban
storm water BMPs. Workshop will be held at the Winfred
Thomas Agriculture Research Station
north of Huntsville, Alabama.
Workshop topics include:
Stormwater wetlands, bio-retention and level spreaders.
Functions, regulations, engineering standards, and vegetative requirements
of stormwater BMPs.
Stormwater regulations and programs in Alabama.
The lead instructor is Mr.
Bill Hunt, PE. Mr. Hunt is the Extension Specialist in
Urban Stormwater Engineering at North Carolina State University.
With extension agents and other partners he has established urban
stormwater BMP demonstration sites in the majority of targeted communities
within the Neuse River Basin and across the state and has organized
various workshops and tours for professionals in the state of North
Carolina.
* This workshop has been approved
for .6 CEUs from Auburn University.
