Editor's Notes

  1. No slide that talks about current investment -- mention PPBES What other agencies and the private sector doing right now What is NOAA doing mention other agencies and federal consortium Pound them about our expertise Modest investment has put us in the lead Mention the CIO office is behind the effort 70K approval for security issues
