BUDGET JUSTIFICATION

We request two years of funding. One of the PI's (W.M.) will contribute to this project at no charge. The two other PI's (K.J. and D.A.) are requesting modest salary support for both years. We are also requesting funds to support the stipend and tuition of a Kristina Rodriguez, a GRA with prior experience in hazard/risk evaluation. Other costs include travel to one meeting per year to present results of this study, computer-related expenses, the purchase of satellite imagery and miscellaneous communication and reproduction expenses.
