We are fortunate to have Yaz Emrani, co-chair of the O.C. Infrastructure Report Card Executive Committee, present on the state of infrastructure performance in Orange County. The Orange County branch of the American Society of Civil Engineers today released its 2016 Orange County Infrastructure Report Card, giving the county a C+ average in 12 categories. The report card was developed in collaboration with the UC Irvine Civil & Environmental Engineering Affiliates, an advisory group to the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering in UCI’s Henry Samueli School of Engineering.
