| The
Annual Conference on Soils, Sediments and
Water, this year, October 20-23, 2008, at the University of Massachusetts at
Amherst has become the preeminent national conference in
this important environmental area. The conference attracts
700-800 attendees annually which includes a wide variety
of representation from state and federal agencies;
military; a number of industries including railroad,
petroleum, transportation, utilities; the environmental
engineering and consulting community; and academia.
Expediting and Economizing
Cleanups, this conference's theme, will be supported by
the development of a strong and diverse technical program
in concert with a variety of educational opportunities
available to attendees. Live equipment demonstrations will
augment the exhibition section which brings real-world
application to the technical theory and case studies which
will be presented in the
platform sessions. Focused workshops will provide
attendees with the type of practical application
information which will impact their job performance
immediately.
The conference promises to
be an exciting opportunity for all those concerned with
the challenge of developing creative, cost-effective
assessments and solutions that can withstand the demands
of regulatory requirements.
