[x] CLOSE

MESSAGE FROM THE ORGANIZING COMMITTEE

In order to fill the void left by the lack of an international technical scientific symposium focused on underground environment, ABAS is pleased to announce the 1st International Seminar of Underground Environment, which will be held on September 15th to 18th, 2009 in Sao Paulo, on the Centro Fecomércio de Eventos. We hope you will be able to attend!

Groundwater resources account for 97% of all the fresh water available for public supply. It is the main element in the underground, since it is mobile and carries the result of the strong interaction with other environments (recharge water, soil and porous or fractured media).

Underground environment management, including soil and groundwater protection and contamination control, still doesn't have in Brazil a specific forum for discussion. A broad discussion on soil and groundwater sustainable use has not happened so far, although there is a great demand for that.

This is a great opportunity to update on what is best, as this conference will bring together the experts in underground environment, creating a great atmosphere to share experiences, hear about the newest technologies and network. During the four days of the conference, representatives from governmental agencies, industry, environmental engineering and consulting, and academia will get together to show their news, discoveries and mistakes. International and national experts are confirmed.
