Dear Mr. Dutra:

Thank you for considering the Southern California Integrated GPS
Network's (SCIGN) proposal to do some great science at the CSU Channel
Islands site! This endeavor is truly one of the hottest projects in
field of geophysics and earthquake research.

Please look over the material I have enclosed to help you make an
informed decision to host our GPS station. The material consists of:

-   Annotated map and images of the proposed GPS station site

-   The Revocable Permit for Earthquake Studies

-   Images of an existing GPS station that will look similar to the one
    we propose to build at your site

If you find the documents satisfactory, please print a couple hardcopies
of the permit, have them signed and send them to us for USGS signature.
We'll send you one of the signed originals ASAP. In the weeks after the
signing of the agreement, representatives from our installation
contractor will be contacting you to make site visits to further
coordinate construction of the GPS station.

Please feel free to call if you have any questions or concerns! I can be
reached at my office at 626-583-7230 or paged at 818-542-5549. I'll be
in southeast Asia from 19 June through 22 August, so please contact
Nancy King at 626-583-7815 if you have any questions during this period.

Sincerely,

John Galetzka
