Hi David,
I am one of the co-chairs for the 2013 U.S. EPA Community Involvement Training Conference. Someone suggested I forward you this announcement about registration being open for you to share with a Brownfields contact list that you maintain. If you can spread the word, that would be great!

Thanks,
Elana
