Dear COPRI Member:

It is with great pleasure that we announce the establishment of the Houston/Texas COPRI Chapter; hereafter known as HTX-COPRI. HTX‑COPRI goals are to enhance the advancement of scientific and engineering knowledge for members engaged in sustainable development and protection of coasts, oceans, ports, waterways, and wetlands. HTX-COPRI will bring added products and services to local members of ASCE and will foster communication and cooperation among our members in government, industry, and academia.

We would like to extend an invitation to you to attend the first local HTX-COPRI conference to be held on October 6, 2016.

The Committee has been working hard to bring together a one-day conference that will interest its membership. We are placing the finishing touches on the program sessions covering Coastal Engineering, Port Engineering, and Navigation & Waterways. More information will be coming soon.

We hope that you will be able to attend the conference and help make it a success. If you have any questions or wish to help at the conference, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

Richard Ruchhoeft, P.E.

Project Manager – Channel Development
