Nowresearch about the human factorsis crucial. This can be divided intofour areas.(1) TLe needs telecommunicationsmust satisfy--needs can be extrapolated from currentbehavior.(2) The technological alternatives available--importantdevelopments are being made in transmission andswitching equipment and user terminals. (3) The effectiveness of thealternatives for meeting the needs--studies should combine the laboratoryand outside world and should focus on typical consumers aswell as business users.(4) The secondary effects--impact studies aredifficult and usually begin after the impact has been felt. Animpact study approach can be to ask what constraints would beloosened by the presence of a technological development. For example, lower costtelecommunications would remove one constraint on longdistance calls and could lead to new group associations.Several disciplines are relevant toresearch that is needed, including informationtheory, management studies, psychology, sociology, urban and regionalplanning and geogTaphy.

Although every effort possible by correspondence was made in the attempt to get information on every mining company in Montana, it is possible that some companies have been overlooked. However, it is believed that this bulletin contains the names of most of the operating com- panies of the State, together with some general information on each company, and that the bulletin will serve as a valuable reference book for those interested in the mining industry.

    2020 ANNUAL REPORT MOJAVE DESERT LAND TRUST ABOUT MDLT MISSION: The Mojave Desert Land Trust protects the Mojave Desert ecosystem and its natural, scenic, and cultural resource values. VISION: Dark night skies, clean air and water, broad views and vistas, and an abundance of native plants and animals. Photo: Lucas Basulto/MDLT The Mojave Desert Land Trust (MDLT) protects the unique living landscapes of the California deserts. Our service area spans nearly 26 million acres - the entire California portion of the Mojave and Colorado deserts - about 25% of the state. Since 2006 we have secured permanent and lasting protection for over 90,000 acres across the California deserts. We envisage the California desert as a vital ecosystem of interconnected, permanently protected scenic and natural areas that host a diversity of native plants and wildlife. Views and vistas are broad. The air is clear, the water clean, and the night skies dark. Cities and military facilities are compact and separated by large natural areas. Residents, visitors, land managers, and political leaders value the unique environment in which they live and work, as well as the impacts of global climate change upon the desert ecosystem. MDLT shares our mission of protecting wildlife corridors, land conservation education, habitat management and restoration, research, and outreach with the general public so they too can become well informed and passionate protectors and stewards of our desert resources. Only through acquisition, stewardship, public awareness, and advocacy can

    DESIGN DISCOURSE Composing and Revising Programs in Professional and Technical Writing Edited by David Franke Alex Reid Anthony DiRenzo DESIGN DISCOURSE: COMPOSING AND REVISING PROGRAMS IN PROFESSIONAL AND TECHNICAL WRITING PERSPECTIVES ON WRITING Series Editor, Mike Palmquist The Perspectives on Writing series addresses writing studies in a broad sense. Consistent with the wide ranging approaches characteristic of teaching and scholarship in writing across the curriculum, the series presents works that take divergent perspectives on working as a writer, teaching writing, administering writing programs, and studying writing in its various forms. The WAC Clearinghouse and Parlor Press are collaborating so that these books will be widely available through free digital distribution and low-cost print editions. The publishers and the Series editor are teachers and researchers of writing, committed to the principle that knowledge should freely circulate. We see the opportunities that new technologies have for further democratizing knowledge. And we see that to share the power of writing is to share the means for all to articulate their needs, interest, and learning into the great experiment of literacy.

Since the 2007 Wolverine Workshop, we have been focused on implementing conservation actions made possible by the first phase of the program and developing a second phase of work. The Ph.D. program that Bob is undertaking in Sweden has allowed us to incorporate a great deal of knowledge from the 15 years of wolverine research experience accumulated by the Swedish Wolverine Project. Between these interactions, the ideas generated by the biologists who attended the wolverine workshop, and the pilot studies we conducted this past spring, we are ready to move forward. The section on the Central Linkage Ecosystem explains where we will focus our efforts, and the Spring Den Surveys section explains how.

In order to prevent or mitigate exposures, a consultation may lead to specific actions, such as restricting use of or replacing water supplies; intensifying environmental sampling; restricting site access; or removing the contaminated material. In addition, consultations may recommend additional public health actions, such as conducting health surveillance activities to evaluate exposure or trends in adverse health outcomes; conducting biological indicators of exposure studies to assess exposure; and providing health education for health care providers and community members. This concludes the health consultation process for this site, unless additional information is obtained by ATSDR or ATSDR’s Cooperative Agreement Partner which, in the Agency’s opinion, indicates a need to revise or append the conclusions previously issued.

In order to prevent or mitigate exposures, a consultation may lead to specific actions, such as restricting use of or replacing water supplies; intensifying environmental sampling; restricting site access; or removing the contaminated material. In addition, consultations may recommend additional public health actions, such as conducting health surveillance activities to evaluate exposure or trends in adverse health outcomes; conducting biological indicators of exposure studies to assess exposure; and providing health education for health care providers and community members. This concludes the health consultation process for this site, unless additional information is obtained by ATSDR which, in the Agency’s opinion, indicates a need to revise or append the conclusions previously issued.
