Who sits on the National Science Panel and the Science Team and what do they do?
A. The National Science Panel is comprised of nationally recognized experts familiar with large-scale wetlands restoration efforts. The Panel’s role is to provide high level science oversight to the overall planning process. The Panel recommended that the project create a core Science Team whose first task should be to develop a science strategy for the restoration planning. Lead Scientist Dr. Laura Valoppi is heading the Science Team which is developing a science strategy for the project. In addition to providing technical support to the Project Partners, the Science Team also consults and advises the Stakeholder Forum (see above). See Science for more information. A complete list of members of both the National Science Panel and Science Team can be found on the project web site.
