conducted).
· Mike Ross, FIU; working on a pilot project to re-introduce fresh water into cells E. of
L-3. (Yes, the team is directed to pursue an interview).
· Gene Shinn, USGS, St. Petersburg. (Budgetary and schedule constraints suggest that
an interview should not be conducted).
Approximately half-way through this interview period, the project team met with SFWMD to
provide a status report as to the degree of progress in conducting the interviews. Prior to this
team meeting, the project team developed and provided to SFWMD a summary of the
interview component of the project. The summary, which included highlights of the
individual interviews that had been completed by that time, also included a list of 14
potential additional interviewees and a list of 10 of the recommended interviewees with
whom attempts to complete interviews had been unsuccessful. The merits of conducting
interviews with these individuals were discussed, and a decision was made whether or not to
pursue interviews in consideration of the area and/or level of pertinent knowledge of that
expert within the budgetary and/or schedule constraints of the project. Results of this project
status meeting were compiled into a “Task 3 – Interim Report for Contacts and Experts
Interviews” which was provided to SFWMD on October 7, 2003.
Additionally, telephone conversations, messages and email correspondences and/or the lack
of responses indicated that interviews are not likely to take place with several of the
individuals with whom interviews were initially desired. The merits of continuing to pursue
interviews with these individuals were discussed at the project team meeting with SFWMD
on October 1, 2003. The results of these discussions are identified in parentheses, below.
Dr. Jerry Ault (OK to not pursue).
Dr. James Forqurean (Continue to pursue).
Craig Grossenbacher (OK to not pursue)(But interviewed after a return phone call after the
meeting from Mr. Grossenbacher indicating his interest in the project)
