The purpose of this section is to shine a "Spotlight" on volunteer members, within ECB, that are known to go out of their way, above and beyond expectations. This month's Spotlight is shining on
Mr. Thomas Anzelone. Read below on how his involvement with ECB is making a difference.
Thomas Anzelone attended the
University of C

Thomas Anzelone |
Orlando to work in the
Transportation Department at RS&H. He has worked on many projects ranging from sidewalk/trails, widening projects, interchange improvements, emergency roadway reconstruction, and AET (All Electronic Tolling) implementation, to name a few.
Thomas has been involved with ASCE since his freshman year at UCF and attended 4 Southeast Student Conferences during that time. He became involved with the
Younger Members Forum about a year after graduating and has held positions such as Central Florida Field Trip Chair, YMF Community Service Chair, YMF Vice President, and he is currently
President of YMF and Chairing the PE Review Course. Thomas has also been on committees tasked with planning various events within ASCE including
Florida Section Conference social events, the
Eastern Region Younger Member Council, and
the East Central Branch's Icebreaker event for the past few years. If that's not enough, Thomas has also recently involved himself with the branch's scholarship committee. When asked of what he loves most about his involvement with ASCE, he responded: "I love to meet new people through our ASCE events and give them a chance to get involved in any (or all) of the awesome events we are responsible for throughout the year."

EWRI Technical Luncheon
The Importance of Stormwater Education in Florida
The importance of stormwater education in Florida can be summed up to... what works, what does not work, and lessons we should have learned. For the past 20 years, the State of Florida has provided a course using "The Florida Stormwater Erosion and Sedimentation Control Inspectors Manual." We will explore this educational program and the highlights of what does work, what does not work, and the many lessons we have learned during this time.
Speaker
Hal Lunsford, Lunsford Environmental, LLC
Hal Lunsford is a 40 year veteran environmentalist who recently retired from the Department of Environmental Protection in Tallahassee as the Statewide Training Coordinator in stormwater erosion and sedimentation control.
Hal has taught erosion and sediment control classes since 2000, has over 10 years of private sector experience in construction inspections, and is considered the leading expert in this field.
