Michael R. Lilly, Alaska Section AWRA Northern-Region Director

I would like to invite you to the January 1997 Brown-Bag presentation by Jim Aldrich. Jim's talk should be of interest to hydrologists and engineers working in the Tanana Valley floodplain. The drainage problems in the floodplain associated with both the Chena and Tanana Rivers, relatively flat topography, and operations of the Moose Creek Dam pose some difficult challenges for both the land owners and the water-resource professionals that work in this area.
