NeFSMA Kingsley Dam Tour and 2019 Western Nebraska Seminar
2019-05-02 12:00 - 2019-05-03 13:00 | Kingsley Dam/Quality Inn & Conference Center
https://www.casfm.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/2019-NeFMSA-Western-NE-Seminar-Agenda.pdf

On May 2-3 NeFSMA will having a tour of Kingsley Dam, followed by speakers regarding issues related to the dam, dam safety, endangered species, the Platte River Basin, and more.
The NeFSMA professional development committee members are very excited about this event since you don’t normally get to tour a dam of this magnitude as part of a floodplain/stormwater organization. The event has been set up so public officials in eastern NE can travel during the morning of a work day, justify an overnight stay since we will have an evening program with CEC’s, and travel home the afternoon of a 2nd day. But it turns out Denver is actually closer to Ogallala than Lincoln (3 hours verses 4 hours) so works great for Colorado CASFM members to make the trip also!
We have been pre-approved for 7.5 CEC’s from ASFPM so is a great opportunity also for CFM’s to pick up quite a few hours if they can’t make one of your schedule events with CEC’s. We can’t offer mountain views like you do at your annual convention (was at your Crested Butte conference in 2016 so know a little bit about your conference amenities), but can offer a big lake, great tour and some floodplain/stormwater socializing. We also attempted to have some less regional (Nebraska) presentations the next day so does not sound like an all Big Red event.

UWRI - Stormwater Detention Systems
2019-04-25 08:30 - 2019-04-26 17:00 | Leonard Rice Engineering Training Facility, 1221 Auraria Parkway, Denver, CO, 80204, United States
https://www.regonline.com/builder/site/Default.aspx?EventID=2549055

CEU’s: You will be eligible to receive 1.5 CEU’s or 15 PDH’s for this course.
You will receive 12 ASFPM Core CEC’s toward CFM certification.
What Will You Learn?
Stormwater detention has been identified to be very effective means to mitigate the effects on stormwater runoff and flooding due to urbanization of watersheds. It is a very important part of urban stormwater systems and is critical in protection to public provided beyond those offered by BMP and LID facilities. In this course you will learn:
1) Assessment of urbanization impact on increase
of runoff rates and volumes
2) Types of stormwater detention,
3) Hydrograph method for estimating detention volume
for large watersheds
4) FAA method for estimating detention volume for
small watersheds
5) Empirical methods for Excess Urban Runoff Volume (EURV),
Water Quality Capture Volume (WQCV) and 10-yr and 100-yr
detention volumes
6) Detention basin’s pre-sizing for multiple flood events
7) Detention basin’s pre-shaping to produce
the stage-storage curve
8) Design of inflow system using a forebay and inflow
channel for in-stream basin
9) Design of inflow system using a culvert-diversion
structure for off-stream basin
10) Design of outflow structure with WQCV plate,
low-flow orifice, and high-flow grate,
11) Design of outfall culvert using restricted plate to
produce the stage-outflow curve
12) Design of basins operated by HGL using equalizer
pipes and flood gates
13) Reservoir routing method to evaluate basin’s
performance
14) Design of micropool in front of the WQCV plate
15) Design of Full Spectrum Detention (FSD)
16) Application and impact of watershed-wide regional FSD
17) Design-storm modeling versus continuous simulation
of detention basins
18) Effect of location in watershed on detention
basin effectiveness
19) Maintenance of detention basins and
various design components
20) Design and Review examples using
UDFCD’s UD-Detention workbook tool
This Course Will Cover:
The lectures and work sessions are designed to teach how to design a stormwater detention system. You will be provided with a easy to use, spreadsheet based computer model Stormwater Detention Design that was specifically developed for you to:
1) Calculate the required storm water detention volumes,
including ones for Water Quality Capture Volume,
Excess Urban Runoff Volume, 10-yr and 100-yr storms
2) Estimate the basin geometry using triangular, rectangular,
or elliptical shapes,
3) Develop the final stage-storage-outflow relationships, and
4) Conduct reservoir routing through the basin under design.
Detentions and BMP outlet structures can be very complicated and can contain of multiple orifices, weirs, perforated plates, and culverts.
Much of the class will be in workshop mode, in which you will experience hands-on operations and how to achieve various stormwater and flood mitigation using detention design techniques. Stormwater Detention Design Software’s design procedures used fully comply with proven hydraulic design protocols applicable in all areas of United States and the rest of the world. You will also learn how to use spreadsheet-based freeware developed by the Urban Drainage and Flood Control District to size detention volumes and outlets.
Bring Your Own Computer.
You will need it to run the Excel workbooks provided to you in the class.

What Will You Learn?
This is a two-day workshop that will focus on the basic knowledge and applications of two dimensional (2D) flood inundation modeling using the new version of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers HEC-RAS 5.0. The new HEC-RAS 5.0 has been significantly improved and includes new abilities. One of them is to perform two‐dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic flow routing. Now, users can perform one‐dimensional (1D) and 2D unsteady‐flow modeling, as well as combined 1D and 2D routing. Students will learn the basic theory and knowledge of 2D unsteady flow modeling and common applications. The class exercises will be practically carried out by creating a 2D HEC-RAS model and delineating flood inundation extents. Every class exercise will be performed based on working through each key element step-by-step. The subjects that will be covered in this course are:
1) Basic theory and knowledge of unsteady flow hydraulics.
2) Understanding of basic 2D flood hydraulic modeling and application.
3) Introduction of HEC-RAS 5.0.
4) Create and run your first 2D HEC-RAS step by step.
5) Considerations and limitations of developing a 2D HEC-RAS model.
6) Combined HEC-RAS 1D and 2D routing.
7) Inline and lateral Structures with 2D flood routing.
8) How to stabilize and optimize the computation results.
9) Exporting modeling results.
10) Flood inundation extents delineation using RAS Mapper.
11) Modeling errors and troubleshooting.
Workshops will include creating a terrain model and computational mesh using RAS Mapper, setting up the initial boundary conditions, adding structures, stabilizing an unsteady flow model, and exporting computation results and mapping. This workshop is suitable for engineers, technicians and current HEC-RAS users responsible for flood inundation delineation and unsteady flow modeling.

G194: Preparing For Post-Disaster Responsibilities Course
2019-01-15 08:00 - 17:00 | 800 Jefferson County Pkwy, Dakota Building, Golden, CO 80401, 800 Jefferson County Pkwy, Dakota Building, Golden, CO, 80401, United States
Description: This course is designed to familiarize the participants with the elements of pre-disaster planning needed to prepare for substantial damage operations. Substantial damage applies to a structure in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) – or 1-percent-annual-chance floodplain – for which the total cost of repairs is 50 percent or more of the structure’s market value before the disaster occurred, regardless of the cause of damage.
Course topics include: Identifying partners and resources; creating post-disaster standard operating procedures (SOPs); outline steps that should take place post-disaster to carry out substantial damage assessments; describe possible methods to obtain compliance with substantial damage determinations; and review possible sources of funding that can assist with post-disaster substantial losses. This course has in-depth discussion of the topics and exercises to help floodplain managers prepare for post-disaster activities.
Target Audience: Local floodplain managers and other local officials with the responsibility of completing damage assessments (assessor’s office, public works, building inspectors, planners, etc.) are strongly encouraged to attend. Emergency managers and recovery staff would also benefit.
Register: Registration will be through https://www.train.org/colorado/. Course ID # 1079686.

We are having a Southeast Region CASFM social on Thursday, December 6. We will be heading to Whirlyball at (3971 Palmer Park Blvd, Colorado Springs, CO 80909) for food, games, socializing, and an ugly sweater contest!
This social will not feature a technical presentation and will be a little less formal than previous regional CASFM events. The venue features a Whirlyball court and also has great food, drinks, bowling, and games like ping-pong, cornhole, and giant jenga. CASFM is reserving a Whirlyball court from 5pm-6pm. Show up around 4:45 to play the first round or swing by later to socialize.
The tentative schedule is shown below:

4:45 PM – Show up for first round of Whirlyball.
5 PM to 6 PM – Play Whirlyball. Multiple games will take place during the hour long time slot we have reserved. Usually, individual games are around 15 minutes long…show up ready to play and we will work you in! Those that don’t participate in Whirlyball are welcome to come and watch!
6 PM – Food will be served. Ugly sweater competition (with prizes).

Hope to see you there!
Please RSVP to at jmessamer@csu.org or 719-668-4170. Also, feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
