This project was designed to improve natural resource decisionmaking by encouraging citizen participation in and citizen access to technical and scientific information. A series of three workshops was held in rural Colorado areas, each of which was experiencing a different type and level of resource development. Case studies of each workshop site provide detailed information about workshop preparation, presentation, recommendations, and evaluation. Also included in the report is an overall review of project activities; a description of the operation and effectiveness of the project advisory committee; a comparative discussion of the three workshop sites; and a list of researchable questions generated by workshop activities.
