Dave-
BLM and FWS are holding a meeting tomorrow. As I was reviewing the agenda, I noticed that there is a group discussion from 10:15 to 10:45 about data gaps related to Geophysical and Seismic exploration. Do you have anything that you want addressed or do you want to try to call in for this discussion? Look at the attached agenda and let me know.
Thanks,
Chris

Actually, it might be a good idea for me to call in if there are no objections. It's not clear to me whether this meeting is focused on NEW geophysical and seismic exploration, or if this would include historical exploration.
Two things on my end:
1. If there is interest, I could give a very quick update on our reprocessing of the old 2D data.
2. I heard from one of Senator Murkowski's staffers that a new industry consortium has been formed to do a 3D survey, perhaps starting as early as this spring. I would like to ask if BLM or FWS can confirm that and whether any additional information is available.
If me calling in is not a viable option, I can email you a summary of #1 today, and #2 includes everything I know on that topic. I'm assuming here that you will attend in person - is that a correct assumption?
Thanks,

Hi Dave,
I think it would be ideal if you can dial in. I'll ask Serena is that's possible. Chris and I will be there in person, so we can certainly carry your information through if you aren't able to deliver it yourself.
Thanks Aimee

Hi Serena,
We noted the discussion about Geophysicsical surveys on the agenda. We could have our lead PI on that topic, Dave Houseknecht, dial into the meeting to speak to this and answer questions (from Reston, VA). Will a telephone bridge be provided? If not, I can bring this information to the meeting.
