27-28 July 2009. The Floodplain Management Association will hold Streambank Stabilization and Erosion Control 2-day workshop will be held at the Orange County Public Works Flood Control Offices, Santa Ana, CA. Streambank stabilization consists of using vegetation or structural materials to stabilize and protect banks of streams, brooks, rivers, or excavated channels against scour and erosion from flowing water.  It is often conducted to prevent stream damage due to utilities, roads, buildings, or other facilities adjacent to the banks; maintain the capacity of the channel; control channel meander that would adversely affect downstream facilities; reduce sediment loads causing downstream damages and pollution; and/or improve the stream as a habitat for fish and wildlife.  Streambank stabilization requires the understanding of both channel formation processes and engineering applications.  This very popular course covers the key aspects of streambank stabilization and erosion control design. For information on this course, CLICK HERE. For REGISTRATION:  Download the registration form here or at www.floodplain.org (right banner) the DEADLINE is July 17, 5:00 p.m. COURSE FEES: $395-FMA Members; $495-Non-Members; Note to non-members: $45-FMA membership fee can be included with your registration to receive the discounted rate.

2009 Wetland Training Schedule for Courses Offered by Environmental Concern If the field of wetlands in the U.S. had a designated birthplace, a 13-acre plot of land at the headwaters of San Domingo Creek in historic St. Michaels, Maryland would have to be in the running.  It was here that in 1972, Dr. Edgar Garbisch - now considered the grandfather of wetlands - began his pioneering work that would result in propagation protocols for hundreds of wetland plants, effective restoration methodologies and thousands of wetland practitioners who sought his advice, guidance, and tutelage.  Dr. Garbisch's legacy is alive and well at Environmental Concern where the world's first wholesale wetland plant nursery is still growing, the restoration department is still restoring, and the education department still educating.  If your professional development goals for 2009 include wetlands, choose Environmental Concern where wetlands past, present and future collide.  Complete course descriptions, instructor bios and online registration can be found at: www.wetland.org
