Hi all,

I’m just glad to see people that I know here.
Hope everyone’s doing well.

Hi all… Looks like a decent softball team forming here… I call dibs on super clean up at 13th in the line up.

Greetings to all. I hope all is well.

I am looking for some of your best exemples of rain garden project, rain managment etc. I am in a preparation of a seminar and will enjoy to see what is really happening outside my own practice. Please feel free to share informations and projects….

Thought I’d do my initial group check-in.

I hope all is well with everyone.

Does anyone know of a good source for construction details for ‘green’ design? I’d like to review these…

Hi all,

Nice to know there’s a Bronco group! I’ll invite a few of class 94′ to join in.

iT IS MOSTLY CULLET DISPOSAL AND HEAVY METALS (LEAD), MOST OTHER CONTAMINENTS WHERE FULLY REMOVED. I WAS ACTUALLY INTERESTED IN BIO – PHYRO REMEDIATIONS BUT HAD NOT FOUND A GREAT DEAL OF INFO ON THEM.

Hey Guys,
I’ll get a piture up soon, just real busy that last few days. As faar as the LATC is goes, it isnt a beurocratic thing, and I would send letters to no just the governor, but you state senator and assemblyman as well. The LATC has a staff of less than 10 people, and is completely self supported through exam and license fees. It has no…[Read more]

Ed,
Thanks for starting this group. Great way to hear about what everyone is doing.
Also to Nick: I’m unemployed now; since the end of October of this year. Using the time to license, and look for work.
I got the notice/letter to the Governor regarding the LATC after the 23rd. Should I send anyway? I’m wondering about what you said about it being…[Read more]

nick,
work is slim. I’ve been hurting since feb. last year (so cal lower desert seemed to be one of the first to dry up).

I hope everyone has voiced thier opinion to our governor concerning the elimination of the latc. not sure if it’s that great a cause though. beside the obvious function to regulate; is the latc just another bureaucratic…[Read more]

Hey there fellow Broncos. This looks like it has potential to be a group that brings brilliant Cal Poly minds together. I am fortunate to still be employed however if anyone has any good contacts, I am always looking for better opportunities.

Ya i defentenly plan on trying to use Bioretention techniques, but this is not a exectly a mitigation techniques it is a stormwater solution, i need some way to extract or mitigate the heavy metals that are with in the soil and water on site, bioretention will help in preventing them to go to the stream but then they are still on site in the soil.

Bioretention is a technique that can be used in nearly any environment, including brownfields, as a water quality control. This may be getting too technical for your project, but depending on the amount of on-site contamination, I would recommend that you wrap all of your stormwater BMPs with an impermeable membrane to help control the spread of…[Read more]

i am a landscape architecture student working on my senior project, which is a brownfield site ( old glass manufacture), and curious to see if any one had unique design, mitigation techniques and or a case study i should look in to.

Larry these look to be very helpful examples of how other municipalities are implementing these strategies. Good case studies. Thanks for sharing.

Well I’ll be honest, I’m very jealous of what you are able to get approved out on the west coast. As of now we seem to be a bit behind the curve but we’re trying to at least catch up with you.

The majority of our office work is around the Washington D.C. metropolitan area (including northern VA and Maryland) and each municipality seems to be at…[Read more]
