Apologies for any cross listings.
The National Water Quality Monitoring Council (NWQMC) is proud to host its Seventh National Monitoring Conference-Monitoring From the Summit to the Sea-to be held in Denver, Colorado from April 25-29, 2010.
The conference will focus on the many facets of water quality and quantity monitoring for improved understanding, protection, and restoration of our natural resources and communities. It will also provide a unique forum for water practitioners from all backgrounds-including governmental organizations, volunteers, academia, watershed and environmental groups, and the private sector-to exchange information, develop skills, and foster collaboration and coordination.
US Geological Survey, Environmental Protection Agency, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, US Forest Service, US Park Service, state scientists and others will showcase new findings on the quality of the Nation's estuaries, lakes, streams and groundwater, and highlight recent innovations and cutting-edge tools in water-quality monitoring, assessment, and reporting.
The conference location in Denver, Colorado will provide an ideal venue to showcase western water monitoring issues, including sustainable water management, effects of wildfires, and efforts to evaluate the effects of climate change on water quality, quantity, and aquatic ecosystems.
Please refer to the attached call for more specifics on themes and potential topics of interest. The on-line abstract submission system will be up and running in the beginning of June. For additional information as it becomes available go to:

Feel free to distribute this call for papers to any appropriate institutions and colleagues.
With your participation we look forward to another exciting and informative conference.
