We’re excited to share that Kyle Werning will be presenting at the 2026 Eastern South Dakota Water Conference, which focuses on balancing economic development with South Dakota’s water resources. The conference will be held October 7 in Brookings, South Dakota.
Kyle’s presentation, “No-Rise, No-Project? The Economic Impact of Floodplain Management,” will explore how floodplain regulations can influence community development and infrastructure projects. His session will examine the challenges communities, developers, and agencies face when balancing growth opportunities with responsible flood risk management.
As communities continue to invest in infrastructure and economic development, understanding the relationship between floodplain management and project feasibility is critical. Attendees will gain insight into practical considerations and strategies that help support informed, resilient decision-making.
Stop by our booth to visit with our team and learn more about our flood management services. We look forward to connecting with fellow water resources professionals and contributing to discussions that support sustainable growth throughout the region.
