That is where things usually get comp licated. Why can it be so hard sometimes? Maybe sometimes, it is becaus e we hear and see the same things differently. The secrets to maintainin g good and effective work relationships may seem pretty simple in theory. For example, everyone wants to feel respected by the people around them and to be around people they respect. The challenge however is in appli cation, especially when different people show and perceive respect differ ently. Join the discussion, when we talk about how normal differences bet ween us affect our interactions and how we can identity and use those dif ferences to increase our personal effectiveness.\nRSVP by October 12 with your name, phone, and department to Yoko Smith at 472-6512 or ysmith2@un l.edu.

The objectives of our effort were to (1) define existing wa ter quality, habitat and biotic data that would support an I&M effort wit hin the Northern Glaciated Plains Network (NGPN), (2) establish baseline conditions against which future monitoring of water quality, habitat and biota might occur and (3) develop a draft water quality monitoring plan f or the NGPN. Focus sessions with park staff and historical data have ide ntified water quality concerns, providing the basis for the current water quality plan. The current version focuses monitoring efforts mostly on medium stream and large river drainages. Assigned beneficial uses, water quality standards and 303d listing all contribute to parameter selection for individual streams and rivers. While the final statistical design o f the monitoring network is still under discussion, it will be probabilit y-based. The network will likely need to partner heavily with other stat e and federal agencies to stretch limited resources and will likely use e stablished U.S. EPA EMAP protocols. Those drainages already intensively monitored by other agencies would receive less attention, allowing the NP S to focus efforts to fill data gaps in other monitoring programs. A del icate balance must be reached between the monitoring needs of the network , individual parks and partnering agencies. Sustainable implementation o f this effort will require continued communication and commitment from th ese partners.\nNels Troelstrup, South Dakota State University LOCATION:HARDIN HALL Room 107 Hardin Hall Auditorium URL:http://events.unl.edu/2007/10/17/10488/ DTEND;TZID=US/Central:20071017T160000 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=US/Central:20071017T153000 UID:22103@events.unl.edu DTSTAMP:20070822T143438 SUMMARY:Paul A.
