IECA Announces Winner of Presenter of the Year for 2011

The International Erosion Control Assn. (IECA) has announced that Barry Fagan, P.E./PLS, CPESC, is being recognized with the 2011 Presenter of the Year Award. This award recognizes an outstanding presenter that demonstrates excellence in presentation skills, educational delivery and content preparation. The winner is determined through the review of presenter evaluations received at IECA’s annual conference and expo.

Barry Fagan, P.E./PLS, CPESC, was awarded with the Presenter of the Year Award for his course, “The Five Pillars of Construction Site Stormwater Management,” at Environmental Connection 2011 in Orlando. Fagan is the environmental compliance engineer for the Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT). He is responsible for creating, coordinating and communicating ALDOT policies and goals to those internal and external to ALDOT. Barry has more than 20 years of road and bridge construction experience.

“Receiving this recognition from such a respected and distinguished group of experts is an honor for me and for ALDOT, and gives me confidence in the principles by which we are growing here in Alabama,” Fagan said. “The Clean Water Act sets forth a real expectation that storm water professionals improve every day. The Five Pillars concept reflects an application of this expectation as we attempt to minimize the gap between what we know and what we do.”

IECA will release information on the 2011 Awards of Environmental Excellence, including how to nominate yourself or a colleague, later this summer. For a complete listing of 2010 winners, please visit http://www.ieca.org/conference/annual/awards.asp.
