Calgary Valuation of Natural Assets project wins at Canadian Consulting Engineering Awards
October 24, 2024
Tonight at the ACEC-Canada/Canadian Consulting Engineering Awards gala in Ottawa, ON, our team's work on The City of Calgary’s Natural Assets Valuation project was presented with an Award of Excellence! Nadeer Lalji (Vice President & General Manager, Alberta South) and Twyla Kowalczyk (Manager, Strategic Advisory Services & Discipline Lead, Climate Resilience) accepted the award on behalf of Associated Engineering.
The City of Calgary’s Natural Assets Valuation project reveals the significant value of natural assets, such as forests, riparian areas, and waterbodies, and the services they supply. The study provides The City of Calgary with the information required to support decision-making and planning for land-use and natural asset management, protecting the environment and mitigating the effects of climate change. This transformational project paves the way for integrating built and natural asset management - a model for other communities.
In 2023, this project also won an Award of Merit at the Consulting Engineers of Alberta Showcase Awards.
This year, 20 projects were selected for an Award of Excellence out of 78 submissions received.
