This report summarizes the process of creating an earthquake public information program. The program is to inform the general public, including all ages, incomes and education levels, of any earthquake risks in Colorado as well as methods of preparation for an earthquake event
From the turn of the century through 2008, fewer Coloradans died of cardiovascular disease. Although fewer were dying of heart disease and stroke, more Coloradans were developing the risk factors that lead to cardiovascular disease. High blood pressure is pervasive, obesity rates have doubled and too few Coloradans get the nutritious food and physical activity needed to keep their hearts healthy. Research shows that social, economic and environmental factors have a significant impact on health outcomes.
This study is the evaluation of two thin bonded epoxy overlays. These two products were compared on the basis of physical properties, including mean texture depth, surface friction, bond strength, ability to stop chloride intrusion, and anti-icing properties, as well as traffic safety and cost. Both overlays worked as intended when they were initially applied on the bridge decks. Mean texture depth and friction testing have shown that they both provide a durable wearing surface with good traction.
The FACWet was developed by surveying existing wetland rapid assessment methodologies and blending the best aspects these approaches with the most recent advances in wetland science.
