Thanks to all who attended our successful conference! We met our goal of about 350 people from across the United States, including Federal agencies, state and local governments, community activists and other impacted residents, property developers and property reuse personnel, private consultants and vendors, and responsible parties undertaking response. This Forum was structured on dual tracks with common sessions. We had technical presentations on sampling, assessment, risk, and engineering. There were also case studies illustrating a cross section of vapor intrusion issues from the perspective of community stakeholders, Brownfields, EPA, and states. We had two breakout sessions: one on community issues and one on government programs. The Community Stakeholder Breakout presented areas and issues of interest for community groups, residents, developers and possibly local government. The Government Stakeholder Breakout pertained to internal issues of program implementation, policy and guidance. We also had close to 30 poster presentations.

Thank you to all who supported our conference, including ORD's Office of Science Policy, OSWER's Office of Superfund Remediation and Technology Innovation, ORD's NERL and Land Research Program. Thanks also goes out to the "champions" of the Monday evening poster session, including HydroGeoLogic, Inc., CH2MHill, Sullivan International, and Pontarolo Engineering.
