Today IID pretty much told me that no progress on the Salton Sea means no cooperation on the DCP. At least they are clear. Please do stay in touch. I value your mentorship. Thanks, Scott Scott J.

I enjoyed meeting you and wish you the best in your future role in the Interior Department. And congratulations on the confirmation of Secretary Zinke this morning! I don't really have anything to add to our discussion, except to mention that we didn't get to any Salton Sea issues. While incredibly thorny, some resolution or commitment on Salton Sea mitigation, coming mostly from the State of California, is an essential pre-condition to a complete Lower Basin Drought Contingency Plan. I also wanted to let you know that I'm working on a project to identify infrastructure projects in or around the Colorado River Basin that will contribute to overall sustainability or resilience and fit within a potential infrastructure initiative from the Administration. I will share that information with you in the near future. I really appreciate your invitation to stay in touch. As I mentioned, I think the issues addressed in the Water and Science hallway are the most interesting in the building, and the people at USGS and Reclamation were always absolutely wonderful to work with. These are intense jobs as you know, but also intensely rewarding.
