Water program teams to meet Feb. 1

Dec 13, 2011

The Ornamental & Environmental Horticulture, Nurseries & Master Gardener program team and the Water Resources program team will meet on Feb. 1 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the UC Davis ARC in Meeting Rooms 1, 2 and 3.

The two program teams will meet to form project teams that are interested in applying for grants in the next round of the ANR competitive grants program, and to discuss and propose new positions in response to the upcoming ANR call for new positions, said Doug Parker, director of the California Water Resources Research Institute.

The Ornamental & Environmental Horticulture, Nurseries & Master Gardener program team is composed of workgroups for Floriculture and Nursery, Landscape, Turfgrass and Urban Horticulture. The Water Resources program team is composed of the Anadromous and Inland Fish and Water Quality workgroups.

The Feb. 1 gathering is not a strategic initiative conference but a meeting of program teams and the workgroups under them. The program teams will be working to set a research agenda.

ANR provides resources for ANR employees to travel to program team meetings. In addition to their meetings at strategic initiative conferences, ANR supports one meeting per program team per year.

Other program teams that wish to meet on the same date to achieve efficiencies should contact Sherry Cooper as soon as possible so she can secure meeting space. Cooper can be reached at slcooper@ucdavis.edu and (530) 752-1581.
