Comments on our workshops held in Irvine, CA, May 13, 2005:

"The workshop I attended last week has helped keep me abreast of the constantly evolving stormwater management practices. I can apply some of the techniques presented there to the ongoing and future projects that I am involved with as a grading inspector for the County of Santa Barbara. As development continues we need do everything right to prevent negatively impacting our precious water resources."
