Flood Mitigation & Creek Restoration Walking Tour
Thursday November 14, 2024 8:30am - 11:00am EST
Like many Kentucky communities, large parts of Morehead are built in a floodplain, which means Morehead has to contend with regular flooding. On this walking tour, we will observe and discuss 4 different types of flood mitigation controls that are used for City of Morehead and how these flood controls are moving in the direction of a more harmonious relationship with Triplett Creek.

Logistics:
  • Pre-registration is required during conference registration at kaee.org/conference.
  • Meet at the ADUC Second Street entrance at 8:30 am.

Please meet at the Second Street Entrance of the Adron Doran University Center at 8:30 am. From there, carpooling will be arranged to visit a couple of different sites within the city limits. There will be walking in damp and brushy areas so please wear pants and boots or shoes that can get wet.

Unfortunately, the weather is looking quite rainy on Thursday morning. Please be weather aware; dress and plan accordingly. Pack an umbrella and rain jacket just in case.
