Kimley-Horn is partnering with the City of Gainesville to conduct a Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Study to evaluate the proposed reconstruction of University Avenue (SR 26) from NW 22nd Street to SE 31st Street and W 13th Street (SR 25) from SW 16th Avenue to NW 8th Avenue as complete streets, emphasizing the safety, movement, and accessibility for cyclists and pedestrians within the study area. Preliminary concepts for the proposed reconstruction of University Avenue (SR 26) and W 13th Street (SR 25) were developed by HDR, Inc. and approved by the City of Gainesville Commission in April 2022. The project includes traffic and safety analyses; extensive coordination with stakeholders, residents, and adjacent property owners; and the design of improvements to balance the needs of all users within a limited right-of-way.

The Younger Member Leadership Symposium (YMLS) is a three-day experiential leadership workshop open to all ASCE Younger Members, aged 35 and under. The YMLS is hosted by the ASCE Committee on Younger Members and focuses on early-career professional skills development to help ASCE Younger Members succeed and lead in the workplace. Tours and special events during the weekend offer additional networking with peers from around the country.

The purpose of the Multi Region Leadership Conference is to provide a venue for upcoming leaders to gain knowledge of the Society and their Region, interact with students, younger members, section, branch, and institute leaders, while gaining personal leadership skills and learning the importance of networking.

Participation in the Workshop strengthens and expands the programs and activities of Sections and Branches through the interchange of ideas, information and experiences, while it exposes incoming officers to the tools needed to be effective leaders. Concurrently, there will be the Workshop for Student Chapter Leaders and the Eastern Regional Younger Member Council annual meeting. We have worked diligently to ensure the success of the program and look forward to your Section and/or Branch delegate’s participation.

The ASCE Convention is the Society's flagship membership event. It is the single annual opportunity that the entire Society is represented together and reflects the diversity of civil engineering that ASCE encompasses. The program for the Convention will be of an integrated, cross-cultural, technical, and educational nature.

The program will follow the convention topics listed and described below. These topics are intended to be used to define a recurring convention program that draws attendees back each year. They are intended to provide benefits to attendees and their employers on an educational and professional level.

Over the past two decades, the District has established MFLs for a majority of its rivers and is currently focused on developing MFLs for the Upper and Middle Suwannee River segments and several priority springs. These river and spring MFLs are based on a suite of environmental flow analyses that relate changes in flows or levels to relevant recreational and ecological metrics, which often involves use of hydrologic and ecological simulation modeling. Examples include assessing how changes in flows affect instream fish and invertebrate habitat area, the frequency of floodplain wetland inundation, and the amount of time that boats can safely navigate shoals. In cases where MFLs are not being met, the District is required to develop recovery strategies that implement conservation measures, regulations, and projects to increase flows or levels to meet the MFLs. The Lower Santa Fe and Ichetucknee Rivers and associated priority springs are the focus of an ongoing regional recovery strategy.
