Webinar: Rivers and Flooding

Webinar calendar pdhAuthor: Michael Penzo

This Live Webinar course provides an overview of rivers and flooding. For more than 200 years, Americans have lived and worked on floodplains, depending on soil, water supply, ease of waste disposal, and the commerce. The pioneers moved west modifying the land: cutting and burning the trees, and then modifying the natural drainage. If the floodplain and its relation to the river are not recognized, flood control and drainage of wetlands become prime concerns.
