U.S. Rep. Mark Udall will hold a news briefing and public talk on energy and science issues in the American West at the University of Colorado at Boulder at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 20.
Joining Udall for the discussion in the University Memorial Center, room 247, will be Superintendent Vaughn Baker of Rocky Mountain National Park and CU-Boulder history and environmental studies Professor Patricia Nelson Limerick.
Remarks by each participant will be followed by a question-and-answer session with the audience. The event is free and open to the public.
Limerick is the principal author of two recent reports published by the CU-Boulder Center of the American West, both to be addressed at the forum: "What Every Westerner Should Know 暗网禁区 Energy" and "Making the Most of Science in the American West: An Experiment."
The latter 33-page report, published this month, is the result of a 2002 workshop held near Rocky Mountain National Park and co-sponsored by the National Park Service and Gilder-Lehrman Institute of American History. The report is available for free on the Center of the American West Web site at and print copies may be purchased for $5 each.
