 The Delaware and New Jersey State Sections of the American Water Resources Association look forward to welcoming you to AWRA’s 2010 Annual Water Resources Conference in Philadelphia, PA. Our two sections are planning a great conference full of information on the latest water resources topics, along with four days of productive community building, conversation and connections while enjoying your stay in the City of Brotherly Love. The conference committee aims to provide a conference that explores a wide range of water resources research, policy, management and other technical topics. We invite you to present your research, planning and implementation projects in this unique, multidisciplinary setting. The conference organizers encourage submissions on special topics, including those of local interest with broader implications. Special topics may include:
The Loews Hotel will serve as the conference venue. This hotel, located in the first skyscraper ever built in Philadelphia, is located at the heart of the city. It is conveniently located 5 minutes from the Amtrak 30th Street Station and 15 minutes from the Philadelphia Airport (train available from airport). There are many restaurants within walking distance, including the Reading Terminal Market. Other attractions, such as the Liberty Bell and Independence Mall State Park, Philadelphia City Hall, Philadelphia’s Penn’s Landing waterfront on the Delaware River, and some of Philadelphia’s finest restaurants are within a short walking distance. You’ll want to extend your visit to Philadelphia to take advantage of some of its unique sights and experiences. The conference will include oral and poster presentations, plenary speakers, panels, field trips, short courses, networking events, and student activities. The Call for Abstracts will be available on this website February 2010 if not sooner so keep checking back at www.awra.org. Contact the conference co-chairs Kathy Hale (NJ Section) or Martha Corrozi Narvaez (DE Section) for questions about special sessions or panels or if you are interested in organizing a fieldtrip or workshop. We look forward to seeing you in Philadelphia in November 2010. Kathy Hale | ||
