The Call for Poster Abstracts is now Closed.
The Conference committee have decided to include poster abstracts in the Stormwater Conference Programme. We are now calling for poster abstracts to supplement the technical programme, and provide further insight into the industry and its people.
Posters will be printed by the organisers and prominently displayed at the conference. Poster presenters will also have the opportunity to address delegates and judges during the lunch break on Thursday, 16 May. Following the judges’ review, the winner will be announced at the Conference Dinner on the Wednesday evening.
