1. Summer Meeting
- a. Sequester likely to impact some travel to the summer meeting, but an survey conducted last month noted that 35% of past participants indicate no restrictions; 35% are not sure; 15% not coming. Patricia Reiff noted that E/PO activities are being evaluated on a case-by-case basis and Preston Lewis indicated that his travel had been approved for NSTA.

Carol Meyer reported that a decision has been made to move ahead with the ESIP meeting in July. Alan Gould reported that his projects are business as usual.
- b. Margaret Mooney reported that she learned today that the teacher workshop will not be funded by NOAA/NESDIS this year. However, Margaret Mooney has as NASA GCCE grant that provides iPads to teacher workshop participants. She will provide a half-day workshop for local teachers, so that they can distribute the iPads to the teacher participants.
