The Great Lakes Regional Conservation Professional Development and Training Program is in the early stages of planning a one
day seminar in NE WI focusing on Groundwater Quality and Quantity (mid to late fall). Previous seminars have focused on
Phosphorus (2002, 2003), and Karst (2005), and have drawn in a variety of speakers from across the Midwest, including Calvin
Alexander (U MN) and Martin Shipatalo (ARS- Ohio) and an attendance ranging from 90 to 160.
We are very open to ideas for topics and speakers, and would like to hear from you. You can reach me at 920.391.4652 or

The U.S. Geological Survey would like to announce a new Web site that may be of interest to you. They have just finished the most comprehensive Web site about "The Water Cycle" anywhere. It features a wonderful diagram of the natural water cycle and an in-depth discussion of each of the 15 topics on the diagram. And, the diagram is available in over 54 languages!
