Task Committees

Task committees are a key part of the Hydraulic Structures Technical Committee. They perform the work of gathering and developing information which leads to publications for the society and the profession. The Hydraulic Structures Technical Committee generally initiates work on one new task committee each year. See the list of current task committees below for the topics currently being studied.

Do you have a suggestion for a publication related to hydraulic structures which you believe would be valuable to the civil engineering profession? If so, contact Wade Moore to share your idea. Please include the following information with your suggestion:

- Your name
- Your employer or affiliation
- A daytime phone number
- Type of publication (Design Guidelines, State of Practice Report, etc.)
