**Characterizing and Communicating the Nation's Vulnerability to
Sea-level Rise:**

**A USGS Inter-Disciplinary Approach**

**Statement of Problem**: Global eustatic sea level is rising between
1.8 to 3.1 mm/year (IPCC 2007 WGI SPM). An additional eustatic rise of
48 cm or more by the year 2100 has been projected (IPCC 2001 TAR).
Potential physical effects include coastal and estuarine erosion,
saltwater intrusion into groundwater aquifers, and increased flooding
and inundation of low-lying areas. Thus, sea-level rise will have a
large, sustained impact on the coastal zone into the future, and will
occur as both population and infrastructure in coastal regions increase.
Presently, the U.S. lacks an integrated assessment of sea-level rise
vulnerability that effectively communicates the many facets of the
problem to decisionmakers and the public.

**Objective**: Provide the scientific basis for assessing the geologic,
biologic, hydrologic, and societal impacts of sea-level rise on the
nation's coastal zone by integrating a subset of research activities in
the USGS Disciplines around this common theme.

**Work Strategy**: GD scientists will undertake studies of the coastal
response to sea-level rise, including integration of regional geologic
framework data, field measurements and modeling of important physical
processes, and monitoring of coastal response to forcing events at
storm-event to interannual time scales. BRD scientists will undertake
studies of wetland response to sea-level rise, including controls on
lateral and vertical migration of wetland habitats, changes in sediment
and nutrient budgets, and development of regional-scale biogeomorphic
models of wetland evolution. WRD scientists will undertake studies of
the impact of sea-level rise on coastal aquifers, including the
geologic, hydrologic, and geochemical processes that control freshwater
and saltwater flow and mixing. NMD scientists will develop new databases
of coastal elevation and the nature and extent of human occupation of
the coastal zone, including estimates of the population, economic
activity, and total property value within areas potentially impacted by
sea-level rise. Preliminary integrated products from this proposed
study, based only on existing data, could likely be developed in as
little as two years.

**Relevance and Impact**: As the processes associated with sea-level
rise are better understood, the hazards, risks, vulnerabilities, and
potential mitigation strategies can be more effectively communicated to
all levels of government officials, policymakers, and the public.
Products based on integrated scientific databases and an increased
understanding of coastal processes will offer a significant improvement
over existing products, which are typically produced without benefit of
interdisciplinary integration.

**Partnerships**: The USGS already has the capability to conduct the
proposed study. We have all the necessary data and scientific expertise.
A Bureau-level commitment to fund salary and OE of participating
scientists and staff is a prerequisite. Significant external
partnerships (e.g., NOAA, EPA) would be unnecessary.

A common geochemical feature of marine sediments of both the deep and
shallow oceanic subsurface is a sulfate-methane interface (SMI) where
methane is oxidized using sulfate as the electron acceptor. The microbes
that mediate this process, anaerobic methane oxidizers (ANMEs), are able
to survive on the small amounts of energy released as electrons are
transferred from methane to sulfate. The abundance and activity of ANMEs
relative to other microbial communities should reflect the relative
importance of methane oxidation vs. other energy yielding processes
(e.g., fermentation). To examine the relationship between these
different microbial groups we used archaeal 16S rRNA to determine the
active populations of a range of marine sediments, including a methane
seep with a shallow SMI (Gulf of Mexico site GC205), a low methane flux
site with an intermediate depth SMI (White Oak River estuary), and a
very low methane flux deep subsurface core with SMIs occurring 30 and 86
meters below the seafloor (Ocean Drilling Program site 1229 of the Peru
Margin). The SMIs of each of these sites harbor divergent microbial
communities. ANME-1 dominates the clone libraries from GC205. The White
Oak River site contains ANME-1, but is dominated by another group of
archaea, the Miscellaneous Crenarchaeotal Group (MCG), whose
environmental function is unknown. The 1229 sediments lack ANMEs
altogether, and are dominated by archaea of the MCG lineage. The gradual
disappearance of ANMEs at sites of decreasing methane flux suggests that
processes other than anaerobic methane oxidation drive the microbial
community at some SMIs.

Fluorescent *in situ* hybridization (FISH) analysis resulted in
successful hybridization of bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) probes
containing *Equus caballus* (ECA) genetic markers to five EHO
chromosomes. BAC probes VWF (ECA6q12) and IGL@ (ECA7p14) hybridized to
the q arms of metacentric EHO4 and acrocentric EHO29, respectively.
FBXO3 (ECA12q14) hybridized to an EHO metacentric chromosome whereas
SOD1 (ECA26q15) altered location from an acrocentric chromosome in ECA
to a metacentric chromosome in the onager, indicative of a putative
fusion event. LAMB3 (ECA5p15) hybridized to an EHO metacentric
chromosome but other research has shown the corresponding ECA 5q arm
hybridized to a separate EHO metacentric chromosome. These results
contribute to a low density onager comparative gene map as well as to an
eventual genealogical common ancestor map for all equid species.

*Caldariomyces fumago* chloroperoxidase (CPO) was used for the
degradation of the industrial pollutants 4-chlorophenol (4-CP),
3-chlorophenol (3-CP), 3-methoxyphenol (3-MP), 4-methoxyphenol (4-MP),
*para-*cresol (PCR), *meta-*cresol (MCR), *ortho-*phenylphenol (2-PP),
*para-*phenylphenol (4-PP) and *ortho*-aminophenol (OAP).

Reaction conditions were selected from previous experiments carried out
for 4-chlorophenol degradation by CPO. As such, reactions at room
temperature and pH 6,0, contained 3,5 UI of CPO and phenol and H~2~O~2~
concentrations and reagents stoichiometry according to an experimental
matrix showing both reagents at concentrations of 0,5; 5,0 and 50,0 mM.
Phenol removal was also evaluated in reaction mixtures containing two
phenols. Reaction mixtures were analyzed by UV-Vis spectrophotometry and
HPLC-RP.

Highest degradation levels, irrespective of the phenol compound studied,
occurred in reaction mixtures presenting equimolar phenol and peroxide
concentration of 5,0 mM. The enzymatic degradation of OAP, 4-CP, MCR and
3-MP resulted on 95% phenol removal and the formation of soluble
yellowish products and a dark precipitate. For 3-CP, PCR and 4-MP
degradation levels up to 70% were observed without the formation of the
dark precipitate. 4-PP was poorly oxidized (only 10% of phenol removal)
and 2-PP was not oxidized by CPO.

**Phenol removalIt wasTYh** In reaction mixtures containing two phenols,
the presence of 4-CP, MCR or 3-MP increased the removal of 4-PP, 3-CP,
PCR and 4-MP around 30%.

NIH funds new brain imaging center at San Francisco VA Medical Center

A center for imaging neurodegenerative diseases with the latest in
brain-imaging equipment will open at the San Francisco Veterans Affairs
Medical Center in late 2003.

"This new center will enhance the Department of Veterans Affairs ability
to treat veterans with neurodegenerative diseases," said Deputy
Secretary of Veterans Affairs Leo S. Mackay Jr. "In addition, its
state-of-the art equipment will further research into the treatment of
neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, epilepsy, Lou Gehrig's
disease and Parkinson's, as well as Gulf War veterans illnesses."

A new high-field MRI/MR spectroscopy system will be the centerpiece of
the center. Three times more powerful than the standard MRI, it will be
the only high-field system in the world that is focused on
neurodegenerative diseases.

The new center will be a joint program of the San Francisco VA Medical
Center and the Northern California Institute for Research and Education
(NCIRE).

The medical center has received a \$2 million grant from the National
Institutes of Health towards the purchase of the \$3.4 million
high-field MRI/MR spectroscopy system. NCIRE will provide the balance of
the funds.

**19 VA Facilities Receive EPA/DOE Energy Awards**

Nineteen VA medical centers will receive energy performance awards from
a national program sponsored by the Department of Energy and the
Environmental Protection Agency.

Called the Energy Star, the award is given to organizations whose
buildings' (in this case hospitals') energy performance places them in
the top 25% across the nation. VA medical centers to receive the
distinction are located at: Seattle, Wash.; Richmond, Va.; Boise, Idaho;
Chillicothe, Ohio; Honolulu, Hawaii; Little Rock, Ark.; Lebanon, Pa.;
Martinsburg, W.V.; Portland, Ore.; West Haven, Conn.; Tucson, Ariz.;
Philadelphia, Pa.; Wilmington, Del.; Clarksburg, W.V.; Pittsburgh, Pa.;
Prescott, Ariz.; Palo Alto, Calif.; Montrose, N.Y., and Augusta, Ga.

"This level of achievement by a federal agency reflects the excellence
in stewardship and performance achieved by the Veterans Health
Administration," the citation reads. The awards ceremony is planned for
Dec. 5, 2002, at VA Central Office in Washington, D.C.

Sample Size Estimation Procedures

The sample size estimates for each stratum are derived from the
following formula:

n = Z^2^ C^2^ / d^2^

1 + (1/N) ((Z^2^ C^2^ / d^2^)- 1)

Where: n = Required sample size

> Z = Value of the standard normal statistic for an alpha confidence
> level (two-sided):

  ------------------------- ----------------------- ---------------------
  **Confidence Level**      **Value of Z**          **Z Squared**

  90 Percent                1.645                   2.706

  80 Percent                1.282                   1.644

  ------------------------- ----------------------- ---------------------

C = AADT coefficient of variation from a State\'s AADT data

> d = Desired precision rate (from Appendix C, HPMS Field Manual)
>
> N = Universe or population stratum size (number universe sections
> available for sampling in a volume group)

For example, the sample size for a stratum with a desired precision rate
of 5 percent and a 90-percent confidence level, an AADT coefficient of
variation of 0.40, and 300 available universe sections for sampling, is
estimated by:

n = [(1.645)^2^ (.40)^2^ / (.05)^2\ ^]{.underline} =
[173.18]{.underline} = 110 required samples

1 + (1/300) ((1.645)^2^ (.40)^2^ / (.05)^2^) - 1) 1 + (172.18/300)

If the total number of sections available for sampling (N) is not known
because the State groups some or all of its nonsampled universe length,
an estimate of this total may be obtained by dividing the total universe
volume group length by an estimate of the average section length or the
average length of the existing samples in the volume group.

The critical point in this process is the value designation of C, the
AADT coefficient of variation. The original HPMS design was based on
empirical estimates using data from a small number of States. The
procedures presented here require the estimation of AADT coefficients of
variation based on the latest State data. The results are then always up
to date, based on the latest information, and are tailored to the
specific State.

Estimates of the AADT coefficients of variation for a particular State
can be derived from its existing HPMS data using standard statistical
computer packages. The HPMS software generates the AADT coefficients of
variation from a State\'s universe and sample data using standard
statistical procedures, and produces reports that enable the State to
analyze and review either the HPMS standard sample panel or the
nonattainment or maintenance area supplementary (donut) sample panel.

# Rural Development Ensures Quality Water for Sutherland Residents

**Sutherland, Neb., April 30, 2008---** Sutherland residents will
receive a new well through a \$1,736,000 United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development loan.

"On behalf of the village board, I would personally like to thank USDA
Rural Development, village employees and the village engineer, Tom
Werblow for helping us through this project. Without their help we would
not have been able to attain these funds," stated Chairperson Tory
Copeland, Village of Sutherland."

"Currently Sutherland's wells contain high nitrate levels and with the
wells being located in close proximity to commercial business
operations, there is increased community concern regarding water
quality," stated Roberta Mues, USDA Rural Development specialist. "The
new well field will be located outside the corporate limits of the
Village with the wells drilled at a depth that will resolve the
Village's water concerns."

Loan terms are 40 years at 4.75 percent interest. A Community
Development Block Grant of \$250,000 comprised the balance of the
funding needed.

RE: The tariff classification of women's ski pants from China.
Correction to Ruling Number M81965

Dear Ms. Giasson:

This replaces Ruling Number M81965, dated May 10, 2006, which contained
a mistake of fact. In that ruling we indicated that the trousers had
scuff guards of Cordura® fabric, an abrasion resistant material. In
fact, the patches on the inside of the legs at the ankle areas are the
same material as the shell fabric, and are not abrasion resistant. A
complete corrected ruling follows.

In your letter dated April 4, 2006, you requested a classification
ruling. Samples were submitted and are being returned as you requested.

The garments in question, styles HPL-05-06 and HPL-07-06, are both
women's ankle length ski pants that differ only in that style HPL-05-06
has insulation and a binding of Cordura® fabric at the bottom hem. The
garments are made from a woven 100% nylon shell fabric with a visible
plastic coating on the inside and fully sealed seams. The pants have a
fly front with a zipper closure, snaps at the waist, along with
adjustment tabs and belt loops, three zippered pockets, hidden elastic
leg sleeves and patches on the inner portion of each leg in the ankle
area.

The applicable subheading for styles HPL-05-06 and HPL-07-06 will be
6210.50.5039, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS),
which provides for other women's or girls' garments, made up of fabrics
of heading 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906 or 5907: other trousers, breeches and
shorts, of man-made fibers. The duty rate will be 7.1 percent ad
valorem.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change.
The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are
provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/.

These pants fall within textile category designation 648. Quota and visa
status are the result of international agreements that are subject to
frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current
information as to whether quota and visa requirements apply to this
merchandise, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment,
the "Textile Status Report for Absolute Quotas" available at our web
site at www.cbp.gov. In addition, you will find current information on
textile import quotas, textile safeguard actions and related issues at
the web site of the Office of Textiles and Apparel, at
otexa.ita.doc.gov.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the
Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be
provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is
imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact
National Import Specialist William Raftery at 646-733-3047.

##### CORONADO NATIONAL MEMORIAL -- NEWS RELEASE

*For Immediate Release*

August 5, 2008

Contact: Kym Hall, Superintendent

After 10 days of hard work by staff and volunteers, the picnic area and
Joe's Canyon Trail are open. Yaqui Ridge, Crest and Montezuma Peak
trails are only accessible via Joe's Canyon Trail. The cave trail, which
suffered extensive damage in the first 1/3 of a mile is open, but
caution is advised as the path is delineated with flagging and goes over
rough terrain including rocks, sand, and running water. Check in at the
visitor center for current conditions on the trails. Nearly 3.7 inches
of rain fell on Sunday, July 27, 2008 causing Montezuma Canyon Road (FR
61) to washout in several places. Park staff is working hard to re-open
the road by the end of the week, but it will remain closed until
emergency repairs are completed. Please call the visitor center at
520-366-5515 for information or look on our web site at
[www.nps.gov/coro](http://www.nps.gov/coro) for current conditions and
images of the flood damage.

## RSVP: Pure Science Benefits the National Interest

The primary goal of the RSVP experiments MECO and KOPIO is to advance
the frontiers of our knowledge at the cutting edge of pure science.
However, the innovative tools developed specially to carry out such
sensitive experiments have often produced practical applications with
dramatic impact on society - the World Wide Web is one spectacular
example.

Thus, it is thrilling to consider that an important application might
develop out of RSVP. One of the critical features required for the
success of KOPIO, is highly efficient imaging of gamma rays. The
centerpiece of the experiment is a huge device called a "Pre-Radiator"
which converts gamma rays to detectable charged particles and provides
an accurate measure of their direction, position, and energy.

Douglas Bryman, co-scientific spokesman for KOPIO and developer of the
Pre-Radiator concept, recognized that this technique might have broader
applicability than an esoteric particle physics experiment. He applied
for and received a patent (US Patent #6,100,532 August 1998) for a
"Detector of Gamma Rays", which outlines an implementation of such a
device for smaller, practical applications such as the detection of
contraband explosives.

Bryman, Professor of Physics at the University of British Columbia works
at the TRIUMF laboratory in Vancouver (Canada). In the mid 1990s, three
of Bryman's TRIUMF colleagues invented and patented a scheme for the
detection of contraband plastic explosives. This scheme has been
developed by Advanced Energy Systems of Long Island (formerly a division
of Northrop-Grumman and now also an industrial partner of RSVP), funded
in part by the FAA and DARPA.

![](media/image1.png){width="5.0in" height="3.75in"}The system is based
on resonant excitation of the nitrogen in plastic explosives using gamma
rays produced by a proton beam striking a nitrogen target. The gamma ray
imaging detector patented by Bryman could dramatically reduce the cost
while improving the performance of the overall explosive detector. If
these developments are brought to fruition, the work of KOPIO and AES
could lead to a much safer travel environment. The techniques and
theoretical concepts that are being employed, from production of the
protons to the detection of the gamma rays, all trace their origins to
forefront nuclear and particle physics research projects like KOPIO and
MECO.

Historical Data

The Department of Meteorology has a wealth of weather observations
dating back to 1905. The observations were taken at a location called
Oaksfield which is approximately 5 miles from the current observatory.
The latitude and longitude at Oaksfield was recorded as 25º 23'North and
77º 22' West. The WMO index identifier was 78074.The observations are
recorded in a paper ledger and cover the period January 1905 thru
December 1936. There is missing data during this period. These
observations have not been digitized or copied on any other form.

Observations continued in this location until Date 1958 when the
official observatory was established at the current Nassau International
Airport with the WMO index identifier 78073.

**Research Area: Missile Defense**

Missile defense applications require real-time possessing and analysis
of flash hyperspectral images for target missile kill assessment. To
recover the target object from data captured by the sensor's focal plane
array, a large scale system of linear equations must be solved. The
corresponding matrix is sparse, non-symmetric, often not positive
definite, and possibly singular. Moreover, both signal-dependent Poisson
(photon) noise and post-detection noise corrupt the equations. The
objective of this summer's task is to explore innovative approaches for
solving this problem, and to demonstrate image reconstruction algorithms
specifically designed for possible implementation on emerging ultrafast
multicore computing platforms.
