As a result, local <strong>and</strong> federalregulators have initiated rulemaking to better protect waterbodies from theharmful effects from stormwater discharges. New stormwater regulations <strong>and</strong>rules have prompted several industry leaders to develop innovative storm waterquality modeling methods <strong>and</strong> low impact development (LID) practices to helpcomply with these new requirements. Although these tools <strong>and</strong> technologies havehad a positive impact on the quality <strong>of</strong> our waterways they are still evolving <strong>and</strong>in some cases are limited by technical concerns. This session attempts toaddress these concerns by bringing in experts from academia <strong>and</strong> the privateindustry to present their work on stormwater policy <strong>and</strong> regulations, monitoring,modeling programs, <strong>and</strong> research needs.Time Paper # Title/Authors2:30PMIntroduction2:35PMThe Changing Direction <strong>of</strong> Stormwater Management RegulationsBill Spearman, Woolpert Inc., Dayton, OH2:55PMSustainDr. Leslie Shoemaker, Tetra Tech Inc., Fairfax, VA3:15PMUrban Stormwater Quantity <strong>and</strong> Quality Modeling for the Design CommunityDr. Bill Barfield, Woolpert Inc., Stillwater, OK3:35PMStormwater Research in a Changing EnvironmentDr. John Hayes, Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Emeritus, Clemson University, Clemson, SC3:55PM BREAK4:00PM 1110623 Performance Evaluation <strong>of</strong> Best Management Practices for SustainableStormwater Run<strong>of</strong>f TreatmentXubin Pan, Texas A&M University, Kingsville, TX (Presenter: Rubin Duan; X.

Join us on atour to Buffalo Trace Distillery which provides the complete production <strong>of</strong> bourbonwhiskeys. We have arranged for a Hard Hat Tour to take you behind the scenes <strong>of</strong>the bourbon making process. You will see the grain delivery, cookers, Fermentationtanks, three story column still, <strong>and</strong> more. Time will be allowed for browsing in thegift shop.All bourbon produced by the distillery is aged in century-old warehousesconstructed <strong>of</strong> massive wood beams <strong>and</strong> covered by a brick shell that allows for thealternating cooling <strong>and</strong> warming <strong>of</strong> Kentucky’s four distinct seasons to mature thebourbon by nature’s timetable. Steam pumped throughout the warehouses duringthe extreme cold <strong>of</strong> winter compensates for the dramatic drops in temperature <strong>and</strong>gives the whiskey additional cycles in <strong>and</strong> out <strong>of</strong> the wood. This provides a morebalanced bourbon, as the liquid is able to take additional advantage <strong>of</strong> the naturalsugars occurring in the charred barrels. The distillery was the first to use thismethod <strong>of</strong> aging in 1859 <strong>and</strong> has been doing so ever since.Buffalo Trace’s warehouses were built in the 1900s (some as early as 1903) <strong>and</strong>represent a variety <strong>of</strong> architectural styles. The differing styles <strong>of</strong> warehouses, <strong>and</strong>their location on the property, contribute to the significant differences in thewhiskey coming from each.Cost: $45 inclusiveCost <strong>of</strong> tour includes transportation to Buffalo Trace Distillery <strong>and</strong>guide.Plan to arrive 15 minutes before departure time.GIVING BACK AS AN ENGINEERINGPROFESSIONALMonday, August 8 2:30PM-5:00PMLocation: StopherModerator: Sonia M.

You will see the grain delivery, cookers,Fermentation tanks, three story column still, <strong>and</strong> more. Time will be allowed forbrowsing in the gift shop.All bourbon produced by the distillery is aged in century-old warehousesconstructed <strong>of</strong> massive wood beams <strong>and</strong> covered by a brick shell that allows for thealternating cooling <strong>and</strong> warming <strong>of</strong> Kentucky’s four distinct seasons to mature thebourbon by nature’s timetable. Steam pumped throughout the warehouses duringthe extreme cold <strong>of</strong> winter compensates for the dramatic drops in temperature <strong>and</strong>gives the whiskey additional cycles in <strong>and</strong> out <strong>of</strong> the wood. This provides a morebalanced bourbon, as the liquid is able to take additional advantage <strong>of</strong> the naturalsugars occurring in the charred barrels. The distillery was the first to use thismethod <strong>of</strong> aging in 1859 <strong>and</strong> has been doing so ever since.Buffalo Trace’s warehouses were built in the 1900s (some as early as 1903) <strong>and</strong>represent a variety <strong>of</strong> architectural styles. The differing styles <strong>of</strong> warehouses, <strong>and</strong>their location on the property, contribute to the significant differences in thewhiskey coming from each.COST: $45 inclusive.
