inverts in bridge links just as they are able to be specified with circular culverts FB:10485: The Snyder Time to Peak Calculator has been updated so that it returns the correct Time to
Peak to the Unit Hydrograph dialog in both the US and Metric Units FB:8675: The 2D Landuse dialog was arranged to require less height and be useful at low resolution 768
vertical FB:7412: The Hydraulics mode pump dialog has been updated to specifically label depth and elevation
fields and hide fields if the pump type did not require the data
The product team has made Hundreds of small but significant changes!

Excellent productivity tool Provides uniformity across multiple users Organizational standards Helps model reviewers!
Templates
Software has default Templates (US and Metric) Use can specify defaults in Application Settings
