When: Friday, January 8, 2010 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Where: ATLAS Institute (Alliance for Technology, Learning, and Society) Room 229 The University of Colorado Boulder, Colorado (at the corner of 18th and Colorado on Campus) Cost: $50 for DARCA/CWC members; $100 for non-members TO REGISTER Urbanization has been occurring along ditches and their riparian corridors since Colorado’s first ditches were built in latter half of the 19th century and this urban growth has placed many pressures on Colorado ditch and reservoir companies. One issue that is increasingly becoming more prominent is the impact of stormwater - both in terms of quaility and quantity - into these ditches. The workshop will help participants identify and frame these issues and develop appropriate solutions to eliminate or mitigate potential damage and liability to their ditch systems. The workshop will begin with an informative presentation about the work that is being done to protect water quality in the Boulder Creek and St. Vrain watersheds from urban runoff. Janice Lopitz, the project coordinator of the Keep it Clean Partnership, will describe the state mandated stormwater programs being implemented to address urban runoff from the residential, commericial and construction communities. Next, Richard Belt, P.E., P.H. of Aqua Engineering will discuss the many stormwater engineering topics including the use of case studies from local ditch companies. Richard’s presentation will focus on: The workshop will conclude by John A. Akolt, Esq. who will address water quality and stormwater issues that impact ditch and reservoir companies in Colorado. John, counsel for Farmer’s Reservoir and Irrigation Company in Brighton, has extensive experience in dealing with water quality and stormwater issues in Colorado and he will be able to discuss optimal legal strategies. DARCA’s Water Quality for Ditch Companies workshop is sponsored by Applegate Group Incorporated, URS Corporation, and Aqua Engineering Incorporated.
