Title:	Interagency Grantees Meeting / Workshop – Nanotechnology and the Environment: Applications and Implications
Date:	Monday, September 15 - Tuesday, September 16, 2003
Registration:	To register, fill out the form on-line: http://www.scgcorp.com/nanotech2003/registration.asp
Location:	National Science Foundation Room 375 4201 Wilson Boulevard Arlington, Virginia 22230
Contact:	Barbara Karn, (202) 564-6824, karn.barbara@epa.gov Nora Savage, (202) 564-8228, savage.nora@epa.gov Tina Conley, (202) 564-3209, conley.tina@epa.gov
Purpose:	(1) To bring together environmentally-related nanotechnology research from government agencies with different missions in order to exchange scientific information, and identify areas for cooperation and coordination. (2) To instill consideration of and for the environment into the research regardless of application. *Sponsors* EPA, USDA, NSF, DOE, DOD, NIH, FDA, DOC, DOT National Nanotechnology Coordinating Office (NNCO) *Organizers* EPA, USDA, NSF, DOE, DOD, NIH, FDA, DOC, DOT U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Nanoscale Science, Engineering and Technology (NSET) Subcommittee *Participants* Government sponsored researchers –approximately 75 participants *Value* The value will be to determine how environmental applications and implications cross-cut research in nanotech and how agencies and researchers can better cooperate and communicate their research, and coordinate in this area. *Expected Outcome* It is expected that a broader community of researchers will be formed who consider both possible environmental applications for their work and the broader environmental implications of the production and products resulting from nanotechnology. Extended abstracts and a web summary will be published.
