Programs and Events


AEP supports environmental professionals by providing a vast array of programs and events. The Superior California Chapter is seeking speakers for CEQA Workshops, luncheons, and evening presentations. If you are interested in speaking at a CEQA Workshop, please contact Janet Dallas. If you are interested in speaking at a luncheon or evening AEP meeting, please send information on the topic and your contact info to Janet Dallas.

General Chapter Meetings

The Superior California Chapter is pleased to invite members and non-members to our monthly programs. They will occur on the fourth Wednesday of every month from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM, but allowing for some flexibility for our speakers, at a location to be announced. For upcoming programs, as well as past program presentations and handouts, please visit our Calendar page.

The AEP Board needs your help planning activities for 2011. We want to broaden our horizons and expand our boundaries, so if you have an idea for a group activity you would like us to consider, please email Janet Dallas or call (916) 366-1701 with your suggestions.

Chapter Outings

In 2011, the Superior California Chapter of AEP will also keep offering field trips and site visits for our members and their guests. Mixers and lunchtime presentations are a great way to meet other environmental and planning professionals and keep abreast of current issues. They are a cornerstone of AEP. But mixers and lunches are indoor activities, and we are environmental professionals. Our hearts are in the outdoors. So we will hold field trips, site visits, and mobile workshops. We hope these trips will provide quality educational and bonding experiences for our members. We are considering environmental education activities, mobile workshops to actual project sites to learn about case studies, and fun trips like vernal pool tours, wildflower walks, and hikes to unique places. Perhaps you have a project you are particularly proud of and would like to share some lessons learned. Maybe you know of a special outdoor natural history location you’d love to share with your fellow AEP members. If so… please contact Janet Dallas with your ideas.
