Podcast:The Public Works Nerds Published On: Tue Aug 29 2023 Description: Send a textMeet Ross Bittner, Engineering Services Manager from Edina, Minnesota, who has an extraordinary passion for water resources and a knack for innovation. Ross and I nerd out in this episode about a new Adaptive Level Control System that the City of Edina is using to create additional storage in a stormwater pond in advance of rain events. Listen in as we discuss the details of this system and Edina's program to create flooding resiliency in their community. We also talk a bit about how Edina is working to electrify their fleet. I'm thrilled to have this true Public Works Nerd as my guest for our 15th episode.
