SCCWRP visiting scientist Dr. Chuck Hagedorn recently organized a state-of -the-science workshop November 28-29 on MST tools, their current potential uses, and needs for further development. Managers and experts from around the country discussed (a) the scientific foundation for determining and interpreting sources of fecal contamination, and (b) scientific uncertainties associated with potential source evaluation at beaches with non-human fecal contamination sources. Presentations and the meeting summary are now available on SCCWRP's website. For more information, please contact Dr. Steve Weisberg.
