Working toward Owensboro project next. Assist with technical info, partners, coordinating events. Today: Talking about the Basin Status Report.  Link to current report: Maps, tables with impaired segments, etc.... all need updated. map will come from DOW.  Things that affect WQ, such as flooding, mining problems, etc. Grant was just announced in paper about clean up grant for abandoned mine near here.  Status report also used for education - schools, scouts Need can be identified and priorities set. Points out where focus needs to be. Today need to get discussions started to address items that may need to be addressed, things of importance that need to be stressed.  National treasures that we need to promote. 2.
