Conference Co-Chairs
Daniel Cox, Ph.D. Oregon State University

Planning Committee
We are excited to welcome you to the Coastal Structures and
Solutions to Coastal Disasters® Joint Conference. For many
years, these conferences have existed as independent meetings for coastal
professionals to exchange ideas on coastal protection and the vulnerability
of the coastal infrastructure to coastal storms (hurricanes, tsunamis, and
cyclones) and variations in sea level. We are fortunate to have both of
these conferences in the Unted States in the same year; together they
can provide attendees a more diverse forum for discussion of coastal
development, protection, and resiliency.
A truly resilient community requires the active input of scientists and
engineers in conjunction with community planners and managers, social
scientists, policy makers, and the community itself. Given the public’s
enjoyment of the coast as residents or visitors, we must all use care and
restraint to preserve and enhance our waterfront for future generations. We
appreciate the enthusiastic support of the conference planning committee
members Lesley Ewing, Chris Jones, and Brian Caufield the metropolitan
Boston Community, and all of our conference attendees. We are very
happy to see you here at the conference!

Student and Young Professionals Reception
6:00 – 7:30 p.m., Top of the Hub Restaurant and Skywalk,
Prudential Building, 50th Floor
Opening Plenary Session
Students, Young Professionals and faculty members are invited to attend
the Student and Young Professional Reception on Wednesday. Network
with ASCE and COPRI leadership, ACOPNE Diplomates, and invited
guests. Make new contacts and meet with other conference attendees
who share your interests. The Reception will include an Academy of
Coastal, Ocean, Port and Navigation Engineers (ACOPNE) Diplomate
ceremony recognizing engineers who have a special knowledge and
experience in the fields of civil engineering that comprise ACOPNE and
who have excelled in one or more of the sub-disciplines embraced by
COPRI. Business Attire.
8:00 – 9:40 a.m., Backbay C&D
This event is by invitation only. A ticket is required.
Keynote Address
James C. Schwab, AICP
American Planning Association, Manager, Hazards Planning Center
Thursday, September 10
Reconnect with colleagues and meet new friends at this year’s
Welcome Reception. Enjoy light refreshments in the exhibits area as
you network and discuss which sessions to attend.
Wednesday, September 9
Jim Schwab of the American Planning Association will highlight the
planning profession’s efforts to integrate hazard planning, including
climate-change planning, into local land-use policy and practice. In
particular, Jim will share his perspectives on the role of, and challenges
facing, civil engineers in contributing to more sustainable and resilient
communities.
COPRI Awards Ceremony
The opening plenary will also include a ceremony for the following
ASCE/COPRI awards:
• The International Coastal Engineering Award provides international
recognition for outstanding leadership and development in the field of
coastal engineering.
• The Orville T. Magoon Sustainable Coasts Award recognizes
outstanding contributions to sustainable engineering practices in
managing shorelines and coastal infrastructure through research,
design, construction or management of the natural and built
environment in the coastal zone.
• The John G. Moffatt-Frank E. Nichol Harbor and Coastal Engineering
Award recognizes new ideas and concepts that can be efficiently
implemented to expand the engineering or construction techniques
available for harbor and coastal projects.
• The COPRI Project Excellence Award recognizes projects with
significant achievement through: design or construction concepts;
use of new or existing analytical techniques or technology; adaptive
reuse of existing features or infrastructure; and/or methods or
innovations that minimize environmental impacts.

Posters and Networking
3:30 – 5:30 p.m., Republic Ballroom
Due to the overwhelming variety of abstracts, the conference technical
committee has elected to add a hosted poster session. On Thursday
afternoon, the Exhibit Hall will become the Poster Hall, with more than
40 posters covering breakwaters and tide gates to fishing piers and
oyster reefs, typhoon and storm risk to building codes, and debris
management. Enjoy a beer or soft drink, a light reception menu, and
join other colleagues as you examine the poster materials and talk with
the presenters.
Boston Harbor Cruise
6:30 – 9:00 p.m.
Discover the historic and contemporary milestones of Boston’s inner and
outer harbors during this fun and informative tour. From the hero tales of the
Revolutionary War to the local legends of the sea, you’ll be entertained
and enthralled. See how the harbor was transformed to one of the cleanest
harbors in the country. Other highlights you’ll see include the nation’s oldest
continuously manned lighthouse, the Harbor Islands National Park Area,
Boston’s working port and examples of extravagant waterfront living.
This event requires a ticket.
Member: Advance $40.00; Onsite $50
Non-Member: Advance $50.00; Onsite $60
Bus to the Boston Harbor departs from the front of the Hotel
promptly at 6:00 p.m.

Advanced registration is required.
In conjunction with the Coastal Structures and Solutions to Coastal Disasters Joint Conference
COPRI COASTAL CONFERENCE IS A
PROUD CO-SPONSOR OF THE
Fundamentals of Coastal Adaptation
Pre-Conference Workshop.
being held in Boston September 9-11, 2015 (www.copricoastalconference.org), the
Sustainable Adaptive Gradients in the Coastal Environment (SAGE) research network
is hosting a half-day workshop, The Fundamentals of Coastal Adaptation, to provide a
pre-conference primer on coastal geology and coastline evolution, risk framework and its
impact on planning and zoning, infrastructure solutions (gray, green, and hybrid), and a
framework for future development in coastal adaptation design and implementation. The
SAGE network is a consortium drawn from academia, consulting, advocacy groups, and
government, and is sponsored by a National Science Foundation grant.

Note there are differences from state to state in continuing education
requirements for professional engineering licensure. ASCE follows
NCEES guidelines on continuing professional competency. Since
continuing education requirements for P.E. license renewal vary from state
to state, ASCE strongly recommends you regularly check with your state
registration board(s) on their specific continuing education requirements
that affect P.E. licensure and ability to renew licensure. Get details on
state’s requirements by going to http://ncees.org/about-ncees.
Program and Session Cancellation
COPRI reserves the right to cancel programs and/or sessions because of
low registration. In the unlikely event of of cancellation, all registrants will
be notified and will receive a full refund, if applicable. Events are subject

The most advanced Flood Control system
Customer
Nestlé has multiple factories in Thailand,
some of which are in flood threatened areas.
Nestle serves the domestic market, and
cannot afford to shut down their production in
times of natural disasters.
Problem
Nestlé did not want to rely on flood protection
plans by the Thai government. They wanted
their own fast deployable, re-usable mobile
flood barrier as a secondary flood protection
system.
Solution
Nestlé ordered 2,100 m of AquaFence. This is
kept at a Nestle central warehouse, and can
be quickly deployed to different factories as
and when needed.
Benefits
Nestlé takes full advantage of the flexibility
and re-usability of the AquaFence system,
thus giving them a better ROI. The local
factories have fulfilled their internal Business

Customer feedback:
“Nestlé Thailand purchased 800 meters of
Aqua Fence in October 2011 when the
biggest flood in over 50 years hit Thailand.
Due to the positive experience with Aqua
Fence and their flood protection system,
Nestlé Thailand has invested in another
1,300 meters of Aqua Fence which will serve
as an integral component in our flood
protection strategy.”
