INC NEWS - State offers "rainwater harvesting" tour

[Melissa Rooney]

I can't attend this either -- I'm up to my eyeballs w/
this weeks meetings and a couple others next week.

Can someone from the INC attend this meeting and
report back to the listserv (and at the next INC
Meeting)?

Alternatively, can the INC invite someone to speak to
us directly (and in detail) regarding this issue?
