Summer Safety Tip: Get Acclimatized
During hot summer weather, hydration alone cannot compensate for a lack of acclimatization – the process of adjusting to different temperatures and climate conditions. In the field, ENTACT staff prevents developing heat illness by gradually increasing their temperature exposure over seven to 14 days. Read more about our safety commitment here.
Case Study: Coal Ash Storage Reservoir High-Hazard Dam Modification
ENTACT Project Director Thad Penuel recently contributed to a case study on the coal ash storage reservoir closure and modification of a high-hazard Dam. The case study was presented both at the 2022 USSD Annual Conference on April 11-14 in San Diego, California, and the 2022 World of Coal Ash on May 16-19 in Covington, Kentucky. The expanded abstract provided design and construction information for the coal ash storage reservoir, a 300-acre, valley fill type reservoir constructed by building an approximately 130-foot tall dam across a valley. Read the full case study here.
Predicting Precipitation with Technology
As weather patterns become increasingly unpredictable and present a larger risk to project production and success, it’s important to prepare using scientific and mathematically backed information. ENTACT uses NOAA’s Precipitation Frequency Data Server (PFDS) to learn the expected precipitation volume for 2-, 10-, 25- and 100-year storms over 60 days. Check out the PFDS tool.
