Many dams in the U.S. are designed to help manage flooding and reduce the intensity of floods. About 75% of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ dams are designed for this purpose, one of which includes Chatfield Dam, located in Douglas, Colorado. Operating since 1975, Chatfield is the second of three “tri-lakes” dams built by USACE to collectively reduce risks from flooding in the Denver metropolitan area. When not operating to reduce flood impacts, USACE coordinates water releases from the tri-lakes system for recreation, water quality, and to support fish and wildlife. It’s important to remember that no dam is totally floodproof. Knowing where dams are is a good first step for understanding situations where flooding can happen.

National Park Service Technical Preservation Services is partnering with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Headquarters Construction Engineering Research Laboratory to test the flood resiliency of traditional building materials. Data on how inundation, drying, and cleaning a variety of historic materials can now be compared to data for modern construction materials found in FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency Bulletin 2-08, Flood Resistant Materials Requirements for Buildings Located in Special Flood Hazard Areas in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Program.

???? The Hidden Threat: Termite Larvae! ???? Did you know that termite larvae are crucial to a colony's destructive power? These tiny insects start as eggs and develop into workers, soldiers, or reproductives, each playing a vital role. Why It Matters: ??Feeding the Colony: Workers cause damage by digesting cellulose in wood. ??Defense: Soldiers protect against predators. ??Expansion: Reproductives form new colonies, spreading the threat. Stay Proactive! Regular inspections are key to catching termite larvae before they escalate into a major problem.

Following a three-year, $3 million study cost-shared evenly between the Baltimore District and Maryland Department of Transportation, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on August 5 issued a report recommending Congress fund about $77 million for structural floodwalls to manage coastal storm damage risk and flooding to the I-95 and I-895 tunnel entrances and associated critical facilities to improve infrastructure #resiliency in the metro region. ?? The project would include approximately 9,500 feet of fixed floodwalls along the southern approach tunnel entrances, as well as closure structures for openings in the floodwalls where needed. ?? The study’s recommendations aim to reduce coastal #floodrisk at key locations to people, properties, #infrastructure and resources, while considering potential future #climate and sea level changes. The authority is exclusive to coastal flood risk and not applicable to flood risk from heavy, localized rainfall or nuisance flooding. ?? Read the full release: https://lnkd.in/gTD4knw9

The terms “conservation” and “preservation” are sometimes used interchangeably, and either of these strategies may or may not include reforestation efforts. Read our blog to learn the similarities and differences between these concepts, as well as how Nashville Tree Conservation Corps’ activities cover them all: https://buff.ly/4fu4DwM #nashvilletreecorp #conservation #preservation #reforistation #treelover #nature #trees #nashville #tennessee

These flash fires at forests across the globe are direct symptoms of serious #Climatecrisis. #Climatechange #climateaction #climatejustice #climatefinance are probably the hottest that are being discussed around the world, in various forums. Nothing concrete seem to be happening !. Almost everyone following this subject, is after #money, #networking, #businessopportunities, #donations, #grants #subsidies, #incentives, #taxbenefits and so forth. Meanwhile, we keep progressively losing precious #greens, fertile lands, #forests, mangroves, plantations !. Somewhere we are frankly lacking, failing !. We cannot leave a world like this to our children. World has discussed this crisis exhaustively, drafted solutions in many platforms like #COP, #WEF, #WTO, #UNFCCC, #OECD and so forth. We need to implement them holistically.

?? A dissertation proposal is like a dam you build. When your committee asks questions during the defense all this water floods in and you're just hoping they don't breach the dam and take the whole thing down. The dam held. I passed. ?? Next step: doing the research I just proposed to do. #PhDjourney #dissertation #proposal #defense

These past few weeks have shown how important it is for #FEMA to have local contacts to help with disaster assistance. If your business would like to work with FEMA, here is some helpful information. https://lnkd.in/eV9xwTf5 #hurricane #helene #milton #disasterassistance #centralflorida

Such exciting work in wildfire science in Canada. Great to see applied science happening in real time! KT! Agency engagement, mentorship, curiosity, emerging leaders. All this happens when there are more voices at the table. People, relationships, trust, respect, sharing. Boundary spanners are important, there has been great work defining the role of boundary spanners in the West too. So excited to see where this work can go. What is next for the integrated fire management pathway?
