Conference

This year’s edition is a continuation of a very successful “Stormwater Poland 2017” conference. Having this in mind, we expect that a practical and optimistic view on stormwater to be the key value for our conferences. We do not want to discuss the current problems related to stormwater management in Poland but present reliable ways of solving them and all the benefits that stem from rational rainwater and meltwater management.
