Hail causes billions of dollars in crop and
property damage each year in North America.
This workshop explores the potential for active
intervention when damaging storms threaten,
and reviews the newly-approved ASCE standard
for such operations.
EWRI in conjunction with the Weather
Modification Association (WMA), will conduct a
workshop on the design, operation, and assessment
of operational hail suppression programs on the
afternoon of Friday, April 25, 2003 at the
Rushmore Plaza Holiday Inn. The workshop will
use ASCE Standard 39-03, the Standard Practice
For the Design and Operation of Hail Suppression
Projects, as the basis for the workshop. For full workshop details, visit

to the WMA at wxmod@attbi.com or by
telephone at (559) 434-3486.
