[cseb national] CSEB Conference in Vancouver - urgent reminder



  Greetings, CSEB members and friends on our CSEB Listserv!

I have been very pleased with the progress made in organizing our annual conference in Vancouver, scheduled for November 13-14 at the BC Institute of Technology. Special thanks to BC Director Jim Armstrong for spearheading this initiative.

The conference is called "Municipal Waste Management: Environmental Challenges and Successes". It features some excellent speakers talking about many important issues, including waste-to-energy plans, landfill operations, large-scale composting and others. A tour of the Burnaby Waste-to-Energy plant is included. The CSEB's annual general meeting will also be held at this event. Check out the brochure, agenda and other information at http://www.cseb-scbe.org/page39/page39.html[1] At a cost of $75. for registration ($25 for students), it's a real bargain!

The conference is only one week away and delegate registration has been _very_ limited to date. Knowing that some members are waiting until the proverbial "last minute" to decide or are planning to register at the conference in person next Thursday, I want to ask that you take a minute to confirm your intention to join us. Please send an email to jim.armstrong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx[2] (and cc: me at bfree@xxxxxxxxxxxxx[3]) indicating your interest by 9AM Pacific Time on FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7. By noon, we'll be making a decision to proceed with or to cancel the conference!

Thanks for your consideration! And I hope to see many of you next week in Vancouver!

  Brian Free, President
Canadian Society of Environmental Biologists
