After The Flames Fluvial Hazard Zone Mapping Webinar

August 13, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

What is it? Why does it matter?

How can the Colorado Water Conservation Board methodology be transferred to other areas?

Join experts:

Chris Sturm
Colorado Water Conservation Board

Katie Jagt
Watershed Science & Design

Featuring a demonstration of the Colorado Water Conservation Board methodology and how it can be transferred to other locations.

The Fluvial Hazard Zone is the area a stream has occupied in recent history, may occupy, or may physically influence as it stores and transports water, sediment and debris.

FHZ delineations can identify areas that are vulnerable to flooding and sedimentation that occur after a wildfire, thereby directing the deployment of resources after a fire into watersheds that have the most at-risk
assets downstream. In wildfire susceptible areas, the FHZ mapping process can help direct stakeholders toward conservation and rehabilitation of areas critical for the storage of sediment and debris (e.g., areas upstream of vulnerable communities and/or water storage facilities).

The $12 registration helps cover our cost. This is collected through GoToWebinar and Stripe when you register. If you have issues with payment and/or government credit cards please contact Jane Mannon via email or call 719-748-0033. Limited scholarships may be available.
