The Mobile Branch of ASCE hosted the 2020 Winter Meeting of the Alabama Section on Tuesday, March 10, 2020, at the GulfQuest National Maritime Museum, a one-of-a-kind venue overlooking Mobile’s downtown waterfront and skyline views.
The meeting was attended by over 80 members and included a full day of educational presentations on a wide range of professional and technical topics. The attendees also had full access to the museum for self-guided tours throughout the day. We are very thankful to our sponsors and exhibitors who helped make the day a success!
In keeping with Canon 1 of the ASCE Code of Ethics (Engineers shall hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public….), ASCE has been closely evaluating the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19). The uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 is a challenge for us all, and we have been working to provide certainty to our volunteer leaders, members, and participants wherever possible. We appreciate your patience and support.
ASCE recognizes that the various national, state, local, university and company mandates related to travel and group gatherings have made it all but impossible for our various entities to continue operations as normal. Moreover, ASCE believes that the circumstances of the COVID-19 outbreak have evolved to the point that decisive action is needed to reduce the risk of adverse COVID-19 health impacts to the thousands of ASCE members, guests and staff that participate in ASCE committee meetings, conferences and events.
To that end, all in-person ASCE Region, Section and Branch events and activities be cancelled until further notice.
