2008 Annual Meeting Brochure |
We invite you to tour the award-winning Napa River Flood Protection Project via boat with representatives of the Napa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District. The tour will highlight restored wetlands, created flood and marsh plains, restoration and revegetation efforts, replaced bridges, constructed floodwalls and levees along the scenic Napa River. The tour will illustrate the challenges of Project construction within the urban area and demonstrate the benefits of the environmental restoration of the Project. Tour participants will be transported from the hotel bus to and from the dock. The boat trip will last approximately 1.5 hours.
NAFSMA wishes to thank the Napa County Flood Control and Water Conservation District for providing this special Annual Meeting opportunity!
Please email Susan Gilson in the national office at sgilson@nafsma.org by August 15, 2008, to let us know that you would like to participate in this special tour.
