Craig Fleming, the Adaptive Management Lead for the Missouri River Restoration Program at the US Army Corps of Engineers, has moved on to a new job in California. His parting words to the team of scientists supporting him (from ESSA, Fisch Engineering, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the USGS Columbia Environmental Research Center), were as follows:

“I want to thank you all for your friendship, professionalism, expertise, and commitment to AM and the Missouri River Program. Together you are the best team of experts ever. Your personal skills and expertise are of the highest caliber and they are exactly what the program needed. Without your contributions (as individuals and as a team) the program would not be where it is today. Working with you all has been one of the most gratifying professional experiences I have ever had and I learned a great deal from each of you. I already miss working with you.”
