Public Meetings: December 1, 2005
Bristlecone Convention Center, Ely, 1:00 to 5:00PM
Baker, Nevada, 7:00PM
The BARCASS leaders discussed work elements on December 1, 2005, from 1:00 to 5:00 PM at the Bristlecone Convention center in Ely and at 7:00 PST in Baker, Nevada. The work elements include geology, recharge, discharge, ground-water flow, geochemistry, data integration, and data synthesis. The leaders were available for questions both during and after the formal presentations.
Public Meeting: October 5, 2005 7:00PM
Bristlecone Convention Center, Ely
Agenda (PDF file)
Kimball Goddard, Patrick Lambert, Victor Heilweil, Alan Welch, and Donald Sweetkind discussed progress and plans of the BARCASS project in Baker, Trout Creek, and Ely on October 4 and 5. Don Sweetkind provided an overview of the geology and geophysics of eastern Nevada as applied to furthering the understanding of the hydrology of the BARCASS project area. Interest in the project was evident by the lively question and answer periods.
