NOTE: To get off this list, send email to majordomo@aqua.ccwr.ac.za with the body of the message containing the line: unsubscribe sowacs Apologies for any cross postings SAGEEP 2001 Would you like to learn about the latest techniques for UXO detection and discrimination? Are you interested in learning about innovative methods for hydrogeologic and geologic mapping? Are you aware of the latest geophysical techniques used for detailed subsurface site characterization? Did you know that geophysics is used to detect organic contaminants, LNAPLS and DNAPLS in soil and water? Would you like to attend workshops or seminars to learn how geophysical/geological data is utilized within the GIS based decision process? If these topics are of importance to you then plan to be at The Environmental and Engineering Geophysical Society's SAGEEP 2001 <www.sageep.com> The Annual Symposium on the Application of Geophysics to Environmental and Engineering Problems, (SAGEEP) March 4-7, 2001 Double Tree Hotel, Denver, Colorado We invite you to take part in SAGEEP 2001 - the world's premier conference and tradeshow on non-invasive geophysical techniques and their application to engineering and environmental problems. Through a combination of an exhibition, conference, technical papers and special events, geophysical solutions to a wide variety of sub-surface problems are presented, such as * Airborne geophysical surveys * Archaeology * Borehole techniques * Forensic geophysics * Geomechanics * Geophysics as an element in disaster response (Honduras, Colombia, etc.) * Landfill characterization * Mining * Processing, interpretation, and modeling * Radioactive waste disposal. * Seismic surface waves and ultra-shallow seismics * Shallow-water, transition zone sea-floor characterization * Toxic waste management and mitigation * UXO and land mine detection Representatives from a diverse group of professionals have come together to organize SAGEEP 2001 and have set ambitious objectives for the meeting: * To address how geophysical surveys for infrastructure engineering can mitigate design changes and cost overruns during construction, and can avoid hazards in excavation, tunneling and trenchless technology. * To demonstrate how the continuity in subsurface information provided by geophysical airborne, ground and borehole surveys, result in better calibrated models for ground water flow, risk analysis, wellhead protection, contaminant migration, and soil salinity. * To communicate to users the state-of-the-art and the state-of-practice of environmental and engineering geophysics through joint workshops and technical sessions. Plan to attend. This conference provides an exciting and informative meeting place for worldwide explorationists. See cutting-edge technologies, meet leading manufacturers and service providers and get the inside track on the latest technologies. Denver, Colorado is the Queen City of the plains and Rocky Mountain West. In March each year thousands come to ski the white powder that covers the nearby mountains. This vibrant city also offers many cultural and sports events, fine dining and a lively downtown. Come exhibit. Exhibitors return year after year because SAGEEP attracts geophysicists, geologists, engineers, environmental and forensic scientists, military and government environmental specialists, consultants and other geophysics users from around the world. Highlights Ice Breaker - Held in the Exhibit Hall, the ice breaker is always well attended. Complimentary food and a cash bar provide an informal and excellent opportunity to meet people and share ideas. Keynote Address - Speaker- Daniel S. Miller, First Assistant Attorney General, Colorado Department of Law. Mr. Miller will speak about the needs and rationales for Federal and State regulations and how perhaps we can look forward to more innovative approaches. Technical Sessions - Case studies on, and applications of, the latest geophysical techniques and technologies. See what's new and learn how to keep a competitive edge. Workshops - Exhibitor sponsored workshops provide the chance to discus the theory and applications of showcased equipment and software. Special workshop topics are the Application of Geophysics in Geotechnical and Environmental Engineering, GPR for Infrastructure Studies and a Mock Trial for Geoscientists. Exhibition Hall - gives vendors and service providers exposure to a diverse range of clientele. Session Breaks - A sponsored beverage station will be set up each day in the exhibit area. At intervals during the technical sessions, attendees gather for coffee, tea, snacks and another opportunity to network.
