Join peers from 8:30-11 am as you learn the history and the development of the Bend Whitewater Park. The tour will include a half hour technical presentation by Kevin Timmins, OTAK, before leaving the conference center. Transportation is being provided
and even though there are a limited number of spaces and you are required to sign up for this tour, there is no additional fee.
The park was created and is operated by the Bend Parks and Recreation District (BPRD). This river recreation park was conceived through a partnership between Bend Parks and Recreation District and the Bend Paddle Trail Alliance in 2007. Prior to the construction of the facility in 2014-15, floaters and paddlers had to exit the river before the Colorado Avenue dam to avoid
entanglement in dangerous dam under-structure.
The concept was two-fold: to provide a way for river floaters to pass over the dam and to enhance the river recreation experience for locals and tourists alike. Tenacious dedication, community support through a 2012 bond measure, general fund tax revenues, grants and private contributions have resulted in this legacy project. Total funding: $9,681,985 paid through the bond measure and general tax revenues, including 1.13 million dollars in community fundraising by the Bend Paddle Trail Alliance. Located in the Deschutes River near the Old Mill District in Bend, Oregon, this in-water amenity offers a variety of river recreation opportunities including tubing, kayaking, and surfing. You might want to just stay for the weekend and enjoy some river time!

The City of Bend is fortunate to have protected dual water
supplies producing award winning water. The City of Bend’s
primary drinking water source is surface water from the Bridge
Creek Municipal Watershed deep in the Deschutes National
Forest. During peak summer demand the City has available 22
groundwater wells available for supply and as a back-up water
source.
In the spring of 2016, the City celebrated the completion of the
new Bridge Creek water supply system including the Heidi
Lansdowne Water Intake Facility, 10-miles of pipeline, and the
new Water Filtration Facility at the Outback Site. This tour
provides a look at the Water Filtration Facility which uses
membrane filtration and chlorine to treat water, up to 11.8
million gallons a day, for the City’s water system.
This tour will be held Wednesday, October 12th, 2:00 - 4:30 pm.
Transportation will be provided roundtrip from the Riverhouse
Conference Center. The fee to pre-register and attend this tour
is $25.00. Rod Mingus, City of Bend PW Utility Department
Water Operations Supervisor will facilitate this tour.

How Gresham Responded when the "Big One" Hit On Monday, December 7, 2015, the wettest day on record for Portland, a 160ft long, 8ft by 12ft arch culvert failed and completely washed out a portion of Kane Road, a five lane arterial and freight transit route in Gresham, Oregon.

Mobile GIS on the LED Retrofit project in Eugene The City of Eugene upgraded 4,800 streetlights to LED. That's 4,800 entries in our asset database to update.

The GIS-based mobile app was so successful, that we are making a variant of the app to
permanently replace our old streetlight database. Patrick Cox, PE; Eric Cariaga

October 14, 2016 Concrete Intersections Intersection pavements experience stopping/starting loads which may result in early failures. Reconstruction with concrete or rehabilitation with a concrete overlay may be used for repair. This presentation will cover thickness and materials design, traffic maintenance during paving, and discuss other cement based materials as alternatives
to concrete in intersections. Brian Killingsworth, PE
Full Depth Reclamation with Cement for Weak Subgrade Conditions Two studies are presented on FDR w/ cement of existing HMA and PCC pavements. Reconstruction involves constructing a cement-treated base by mixing in-place native aggregate base rock and subgrade with cement and compacting it to its maximum dry density (following ASTM D-558). Cement content is determined from UC strength tests, based on a 7-day strength of 250 psi after curing of the CTB layer. Rohit

Providing Emergency Services - An Approach to Drinking Water This presentation focuses on the City of Grants Pass’ approach to providing potable water in the event of a catastrophic failure of its water filtration plant. The program will focus on the evaluation and selection of various portable filtration equipment, design and construction of an emergency treatment supply and development of an alternate
supply for increased resiliency. Jason M. Canady
Elevating Expectations: Taking our Water Projects to New Heights The first composite elevated water tank built in Oregon is owned and operated by Crooked River Ranch Water Company. Commissioned in 2016, the project provides a 1,100-foot supply well, one-million gallons of low-maintenance, reliable storage, and a system-wide SCADA overhaul. We highlight planning, USDA-RD funding, design, and operational elements, as well as similarities to other projects. Cedar Simmons, PE;

Transforming Springfield’s Mill Race into Community Asset Mill Race Stormwater Facility, one of the largest regional water quality treatment ponds in the City of Springfield, includes a vegetated drainage swale, trailhead, and multi-use path enhancing the historic Mill Race for recreational values and wildlife habitat. Project included extensive involvement of multi-disciplinary local agencies and regulatory agencies including DSL, USACE, and ODFW. Dan Schall, PE, Jesse
Jones, PE
Bend Colorado Lift Station - Teaming During Planning-Construction Planning, design & construction of the Lift Station. Teaming that occurred with project stakeholders, including the sewer system operators highlighted. The project includes design of 1,500 ft of 24-in. gravity sewer, a 2,300 gpm lift station & 5,660 ft of dual 12-in. force mains. Design includes odor control for high-strength industrial waste and architecture to meet City planning requirements. Dennis Galinato, PE; George Franklet, PE
