Hello all.  We look forward to the previously announced  stakeholder meeting tomorrow [information below].  The WCI Work Plan for the coming months that discusses the individual committee activities as well as regional level stakeholder outreach is now posted on the WCI website.  We will cover this at the meeting but wanted folks to have a chance to review in advance if time permits.

The work plan is at:

Copies of the plan will also be available at the stakeholders meeting.
