Will Willson will present on risk assessment for the Los Angeles Gold Line East Side Extension and scheduling at the upcoming FTA conference in August 2009 in Los Angeles, CA. The goal of this conference is to establish best practices and clarify FTA’s processes and expectations so that Grantees may be able to better integrate their engineering design and construction activities with FTA’s requirements for timing, level of development, and documentation. Speakers will include existing grantees, new project sponsors, grantees’ consultants, FTA Office of Engineering staff and PMOCs.
