Fraser, II, PE, General Manager/Chief Engineer (Clark County Regional Flood Control District) This presentation provides an insiders’ view of this catastrophic incident from both a fire response and emergency management perspective. The Clark County Fire Department played a dual role in supporting the U.S. Forest Service and the State of Nevada in fighting the largest fire to attack the Spring Mountain Range since 1924. Nearly 28,000 acres of forest land were burned, and the area sustained damage to structures and critical infrastructure due to fire and subsequent flooding.

2013 saw many high intensity rainfall events upstream of the Kyle Canyon Detention Basin in the northwest part of the Las Vegas Valley. These rainfall/flood events were further complicated by part of the contributing watershed experiencing a forest fire (Carpenter 1). The presentation will show how the detention basin performed as designed.

Jeff Civillico is a Vegas-based headline entertainer who blends his perfected art of juggling with friendly audience interaction and insane amounts of energy. Jeff is the Founder and President of Win-Win Entertainment, a non-profit which pairs performers willing to donate their time and talent with charity organizations in need of entertainment. He is excited to be a member of the Young Non-Profit Professionals Network of Southern Nevada, and to get more

involved in the non-profit space. He is an avid member of the National Speakers Association of Las Vegas. Jeff remains very committed to his alma mater Georgetown University. He is President of the local Georgetown University Alumni Club of Las Vegas, and a member of the Board of Governor for the University at large.

Jeff is also ridiculous. He holds a world record for bungee jumping on his unicycle off a cliff in New Zealand, and goes “joggling” for fun. “Joggling” = juggling while jogging. He raised $5000+ as a team member of “Athletes for Special Kids” by joggling all 26.2 miles of the Disney Marathon.

Jeff Civillico is a Vegas-based headline entertainer who blends his perfected art of juggling with friendly audience interaction and insane amounts of energy. Jeff is the Founder and President of Win-Win Entertainment, a non-profit which pairs performers willing to donate their time and talent with charity organizations in need of entertainment. He is excited to be a member of the Young Non-Profit Professionals Network of Southern Nevada, and to get more

involved in the non-profit space. He is an avid member of the National Speakers Association of Las Vegas. Jeff remains very committed to his alma mater Georgetown University. He is President of the local Georgetown University Alumni Club of Las Vegas, and a member of the Board of Governor for the University at large.

Jeff is also ridiculous. He holds a world record for bungee jumping on his unicycle off a cliff in New Zealand, and goes “joggling” for fun. “Joggling” = juggling while jogging. He raised $5000+ as a team member of “Athletes for Special Kids” by joggling all 26.2 miles of the Disney Marathon.
