The third biennial South Carolina Water Resources Conference will be held October 10-11, 2012 at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center. The conference is coordinated by Clemson University’s Center for Watershed Excellence (www.clemson.edu/watershedcenter) in conjunction with a statewide planning committee. The purpose of the conference is to provide an integrated forum for discussion of water policies, research projects and water management in order to prepare for and meet the growing challenge of providing water resources to sustain and grow South Carolina’s economy, while preserving our natural resources. Once again, the conference will bring together statewide academic, private and public sectors - as the central goal of the Center for Watershed Excellence is working towards collaborative management of water resources across the state and the region.
The previous conferences each attracted over 300 registered attendees and over 120 presenters. The conferences included participants from all areas concerned with water issues: public policy decision makers, municipal water authorities, stormwater managers, environmental engineering and consulting firms, environmental attorneys, colleges and universities, state and federal agencies, non-profit organizations, economic development organizations, utility companies, land trusts and land managers.
The proceedings from both past conferences, including manuscripts, extended abstracts and posters, can be viewed online at the "2008 Archives" and "2010 Archives" pages.
CALL FOR ABSTRACTS - Abstracts for poster presentations are currently still being accepted.
