Hi Task Force,

We were just made aware of this symposium and that representatives from the basin will be participating in it.

It is a cross-program symposium focusing on sharing information on programs, projects, and best practices to help improve the cleanup and management of PCBs. Representatives from the Puget Sound, Chesapeake Bay, Spokane River, Delaware River, Great Lakes, and New Bedford Harbor will provide background and insights on PCB management in their regions. The main goal is to provide an opportunity to learn how to collectively reduce the levels and effects of PCBs in the environment.  

Adriane Borgias (Ecology) and Dave Dilks (Technical consultant to the Task Force) will be speaking on January 24 about the Spokane River. Here is more information and the agenda below along with a registration link:
