  1. GEOG 346: Day 24 Integrating Infrastructure at the Site Level

  2. Housekeeping Items • Will give back the Linley Valley assignments. • How many people are going to Bamfield next week? • Some important events occurring tonight and in the next week: • World Water Day is today, with an info table in the cafeteria and a symposium in the evening featuring Steve Earle, Jack Anderson from Greenplan Designs, and Gail Adrienne from NALT in Bldg. 200, Room 203. • Film at 7:00 p.m. on the 23rd at Cowichan Campus: “Civilizing the Economy,” followed by a workshop on 24th from 9:00 to 2:00, featuring John Restakis, E.D. of the BC Co-operative Association and author of Humanizing the Economy. • On March 29th a town hall on “Fair Taxation: Oxymoron or Possibility?” with economist, Bob Ages, followed by discussion in Bldg. 355, Room 211 (lounge) at 7 p.m.

  3. Housekeeping Items • Derek and Michelle (may not be here) were on a field trip to Victoria last week that went to Dockside Green and Fernwood. Any comments? • Any more people want to share something about their case study outcomes? • Today, I will give a presentation I delivered on behalf of the International Centre for Sustainable Cities (ICSC) in Istanbul a few years ago, and we’ll follow that with a design exercise.

  4. Design Criteria for the Exercise • How can infrastructural elements work synergistically? • How can the area be self-sufficient in the event of a disaster and even contribute in terms of a “restorative ecological footprint”? • How can the natural and built environments be blended? • What about food production? • How will stormwater, grey water, and black water be managed? • What about energy and water conservation and alternatives? [Feel free to borrow ideas from Dockside Green or other examples you know of…]
