"Municipal Sewer & Water" Features Stream Characterization Approach to Infrastructure Protection



Paul Miller's focus on design repairs of pipelines within streams and rivers is the focus of an October article that appeared in print and on-line in "Municipal Sewer & Water." The subject: JCW's approach to protecting at-risk sewer infrastructure at stream crossings. The solution: GBA's watershed analysis, localized stream reach surveys, and "natural" design solutions to ensure long-term sustainability for pipeline protection.

As GBA's stream specialist, Paul headed up our efforts on the work and is interviewed in depth, along with Aaron Witt, engineering manager for JCW. Paul has completed more than 500 hours of specialized training and field experience in fluvial geomorphology analysis and natural stream restoration techniques (Rosgen Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4). He is GBA’s recognized expert in stream stability and stream bank stabilization analysis and is a locally respected fluvial geomorphologist. Under Paul's leadership, our Stream Team has completed more than 30 projects. Paul himself has evaluated more than 500 miles of streams and rivers in Kansas and Missouri!
