DENVER, March 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — The pre-conference workshops for StormCon, the premier stormwater conference and exposition, have just been revealed as the world’s foremost thought leaders in surface water quality and stormwater management gear up to present in Denver, Colorado at the 17th annual event this August 12–16, 2018.
