The
Annual Conference on Soils, Sediments, Water and
Energy, at the University of Massachusetts at
Amherst has become the preeminent national conference in
this important environmental area. The conference attracts
600-800 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.
A strong and diverse technical program is developed each year in concert with a variety of educational, social, and networking opportunities. Live equipment demonstrations augment the exhibition hall, bringing real world application to the technical theory presented in the sessions. Focused day and evening workshops provide attendees with practical information for immediate application.
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.
