The 20th Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway Assoc. Annual Meeting with Brad Pickel

On this special episode, Peter and Tyler welcome Brad Pickel to the show to introduce the audience to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway Association (AIWA), the national, non-profit organization started in 1999 with the mission of securing funding and support for the maintenance of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW). The AIWW extends more than 1,100 miles from Norfolk, Virginia to Key West, Florida. Some lengths consist of natural inlets, salt-water rivers, bays, and sounds; others are man-made canals. Congress authorized the creation of the AIWW in 1919 and the entire waterway was completed in 1940. The US Army Corps of Engineers is responsible for maintaining the waterway. Each year, AIWA holds an annual meeting for stakeholders, policy makers, industry, and government managers. This year, the 20th annual meeting, ASPN will be covering the event with live coverage! So, come and join us at the meeting, November 21-22, the in Savannah, GA.
