The Board actively solicited public comments about wide-ranging environmental concerns through a variety of
outreach efforts, including public hearings, invitations to organizations with environmental interests and to NSF
advisory committees, and a web site. Over 162 written comments were received by e-mail, fax, and regular mail;
some individuals submitted more than one set of comments. The name and affiliation of senior authors are
listed below. Comments submitted by individuals did not necessarily represent organizational positions.
However, if an organization's position was represented by an individual's comments, this is indicated by an
asterisk (*) next to the organization's name. Note that some individuals provided multiple affiliations.
