SEPTEMBER 14—15, 2009
NATIONAL CONSERVATION TRAINING CENTER
SHEPHERDSTOWN, WV

Growing Communities on Karst brings together geologists, engineers, land use planners, and remediation specialists to discuss how to manage development in
carbonate rock regions. This year we are bringing in experts to discuss:

 Geologic mapping and sinkhole detection techniques that will help predict where problems will occur.

 Groundwater protection laws to improve communication between developers and local government.

 Remediation methods that are practical and affordable.

 In-field question and answer session to provide practical answers to real problems.

Growing Communities on Karst is the workshop that is designed to meet the needs of communities dealing with environmental protection issues of sensitive areas.
