Grand Canyon Researchers Receive Award
On Wednesday, October 13, at the USGS awards ceremony in Reston,
the Grand Canyon Experimental Flood team (several dozen WRD and GD
researchers) received a Unit Award for "Excellence of Service" signed
by Secretary Babbitt. Director Groat presented the award; Jeff
Williams accepted the award on behalf of CMG researchers Roberto
Anima, Kristin Brown, Hank Chezar, Dave Hogg, Mike Marlow, Tom
Reiss, Dave Rubin, and George Tate, and NGM researcher
Rick Stanley,
who joined us for sedimentologic investigations. In an e-mail
announcement to the awardees, USGS Chief Hydrologist Robert M.
Hirsch wrote, "The Experimental Flood was an outstanding moment
in the proud history of the USGS. It typified some of the core
characteristics of USGS, being highly relevant to society's needs,
and both intellectually and physically demanding. It is an
extraordinary example of interdisciplinary cooperation in the
best tradition of the Survey."
