SPE National Denver: Graduate Student Presentation by Jeff Rich.
The French Broad River in Western North Carolina is the third oldest river in the world, behind only the Nile and the New River in Virginia. It is even older than the Appalachian Mountains that surround it.
This work documents the uses of the French Broad River floodplain, its development and the constant change brought on by man's presence and natural causes. By looking at the river itself and the landscape of industry and inhabitation, this project emphasizes the need for responsible stewardship of the land to ensure its sustainable future.
The presentation will be held on:
Day: Saturday, March 15, 2008
Room: Governor’s Square 17
Time: 11:40 a – 12:00 p
