Only cash or check will be accepted the day of the seminar.

This program provides an introduction to pervious concrete pavement as a solution to reducing storm water runoff from building sites and does so in the over-all context of also increasing the understanding of where concrete fits into the green building movement. Attendees will learn what pervious concrete pavement is, its engineering properties, construction techniques, and high potential to positively impact over-all project costs. The effective utilization of pervious concrete pavement for on-site management and mitigation of stormwater runoff is a recommended best management practice (BMP) of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The U.S. Green Building Councils (USGBC) LEED Green Building Rating System rewards registered projects with point attainment through the appropriate use of pervious concrete pavement.

The seminar counts as one educational credit for engineers, surveyors, or architects (1 PDH or 0.1 CEU, 1 CPC-category A, or 1 LU).
