Welcome to online registration for the 2010 Exchange Network National Meeting! This year we will be gathering in Chicago, IL to share ideas on how the Exchange Network can continue to provide better access to better information for better environmental management. The national meeting is one of the best opportunities to interact with and learn from other members of the Exchange Network community.

With the basic infrastructure of the Exchange Network now in place, we'll be focusing on creating opportunities to maximize use of the Network through data publishing and building out data exchanges that support national data access needs. The meeting objective is to grow and enhance the Exchange Network and Exchange Network User Community by:

• Discussing opportunities for using the Exchange Network in innovative ways or in new business areas;
• Sharing and learning about successful applications of the Exchange Network;
• Discovering tools and resources available to the Exchange Network User community to assist in the rapid adoption of the Exchange Network; and
• Meeting Exchange Network practitioners working to solve similar problems in similar environments.

For travel planning purposes, you can assume that we will begin at 8:00 AM on Tuesday, April 20, 2010 and end at 12:00 PM on Thursday, April 22, 2010.
