EVENT CHANGE –
With the easing COVID19 restrictions, SQ is proud to announce a change to the proposed Excellence Awards Webinar to a face-to-face event in February. Come along to celebrate some of the great stormwater projects of the year, catch up with some old industry friends over a couple of drinks and meet a few new ones!
In Queensland, we have a history of excellence across every aspect of stormwater management. From outstanding examples of master planning to integrated stormwater design, the awards provide an outstanding opportunity to showcase the quality of our work and the beneficial impact it has on keeping our vital waterways healthy.
The 2020 entry categories include:
- Excellence in Strategic or Master Planning (Sponsored by Ocean Protect)
- Excellence in Infrastructure
- Excellence in Asset Management
- Excellence in Research and Innovation
- Excellence in Policy or Education
- Excellence in Integrated Stormwater Design
Do you find the your work is affecting your mental health? Was that 20th drainage re-design one too many? Do you feel as though your clients still don’t care about water quality outcomes, even in 2022?
Come along to this panel discussion to hear from some diverse voices who’ve been there and seen that. This event aims to proactively review the pressures of mental health, uniquely to stormwater professionals, and how we can work together to overcome them as an industry.
This free 1-hour webinar is hosted by Stormwater Queensland and will include presentations, followed by Q&A with attendees.
Proof of CPD will be provided to attendees upon request to Stormwater Queensland.
Bioretention systems (also called biofiltration systems, biofilters, bioretention basins, bioretention systems, bioswales and raingardens) are one of the most commonly applies asset types to assist urban areas in Queensland and elsewhere to be more ‘water sensitive’.
In this webinar, Logan City Council’s WSUD Technical Officer, Jonas Larsen will explain, in true multidisciplinary fashion, the usefulness of ecological theory and other biological processes in improving the establishment and performance of bioretention systems.
This webinar will include a short (approximately 20-minute) presentation, followed by Q&A with attendees. Proof of CPD can be provided to attendees upon request.
