New This Year!

SAGEEP Workshop
W-1: Airborne EM for Environmental and Engineering Applications
This all-day (8 am to 5 pm) workshop will be held on Thursday, April 15, 2010. Invited and volunteered presentations will be organized into topical sessions that will include instruments and capabilities, calibration, processing, and interpretation, applications, and case histories. Discussion during and between presentations is encouraged. A closing panel discussion will consider current issues and trends in airborne EM.
Additional Workshop Information

SAGEEP Cafe
Pre-order lunch on Monday and Wednesday and join fellow SAGEEP attendees in the SAGEEP Cafe - or grab your lunch and head outside with colleagues. For your convenience, boxed lunches and iced tea will be available in the Conference Center. Or, if you're in the mood for a latte, visit the Coffee Cart and purchase coffee beverages, soft drinks or bottled water. Place your lunch order on the pre-registration form based on the sandwich types offered - Turkey with Swiss on a croissant, Ham with Swiss on whole wheat sub or Grilled Vegetable sandwich with red pepper hummus.

Hot Topics Poster Session
The SAGEEP Café in the Conference Center offers an alternative for lunch and the Hot Topics session features posters on late breaking discoveries, observations, and results too fresh to have been submitted to the Technical Program and the Proceedings CD. This informal lunch session is designed to provoke discussion and encourage feedback. The Café and Hot Topics will be open at lunch time Monday and Wednesday at the Conference Center. Sign up for the SAGEEP Café lunch on the meeting registration site and submit Hot Topics poster titles and authors (that’s all that’s required) to General Chair Vic Labson (vlabson@usgs.gov). SAGEEP customary standards apply, inappropriate papers, those lacking scientific merit, or those with excessive commercial advertisement are subject to rejection. Quality control is the author’s responsibility. Titles will be accepted until the space is full. While Hot Topics are not part of the Technical Program and are not included in the Proceedings, the authors and titles will be listed along with a session summary in a future FastTIMES. Plan to join us for lunch and share your newest work at hot topics@sageep.cafe.

EEGS Luncheon - EEGS/Geonics Early Career Award Recipient
On Tuesday, April 13, the 2010 recipient of the EEGS / Geonics annual Early Career Award (ECA) will deliver the EEGS Luncheon talk. Adding to the level of excitement at this year's luncheon is the fact that the award recipient has not yet been announced - please join fellow SAGEEP attendees to listen to the presentation and learn who has been awarded the prestigious ECA for academic excellence that also encourages research in near-surface geophysics. Register early, limited space available.

SAGEEP Conference Evening
Gather around the fireplace or take in the spectacular views of the Ten Mile range, but don't miss the Conference evening at Keystone Ranch, a 1930s ranch homestead that combines rustic elegance with unique mountain dining. Includes roundtrip transportation, dinner, wine and entertainment.

Full Day Field Trip
Xcel Energy will provide a one-hour tour of the Shoshone Hydroelectric Plant located along the Colorado River outside of Glenwood Springs in Glenwood Canyon. The hydroelectric plant, which began operation in 1909, although relatively small with a production of up to 15 MW of electricity, carries one of the most senior water rights on the Colorado River. Along the drive on I-70 to the Shoshone Plant, participants can follow along published road logs that include geologic points of interest as well as information on the Glenwood Canyon highway project that won awards for its achievements in civil engineering when it opened in 1992. After the Shoshone plant tour, the trip will continue to Glenwood Springs where participants will ride the scenic gondola-style Iron Mountain Tramway up to an elevation of 7,100 ft with panoramic views of the Rocky Mountains. Lunch is at the top of the tram near the entrance to the caves, prior to the 70-minute guided, walking tour of Glenwood Caverns and Historic Fairy Caves, including the most highly decorated room in Colorado. After the return tram ride down the mountain, the trip will conclude with the journey back to Keystone. Includes roundtrip transportation, entrance fees to tours, and lunch. Please bring comfortable walking shoes and suitable outerwear for springtime in the Rockies (changeable) weather. (This tour has a limit on the number of registrants.)

Hospitality Events
On Monday and Wednesday afternoons, a complimentary, one-hour hospitality event with beer and snacks - otherwise known as the SAGEEP Beer Bash - will be held in the Exhibits Hall (Colorado Rockies Ballroom). Badges and appropriate ID will be required.

Special Registration Information for Students

Student Event
Make the most of your trip to Keystone by joining us on Sunday for a day of reduced-rate skiing at Arapahoe Basin. Reduced rates are also available on ski/snowboard rentals.

Pre-registration deadline is March 12, so sign up now (limited space), using the special registration form (online registration not available - complete form and fax or mail form and payment to EEGS offices).
