Oversight includes finding capable individuals to implement the activities and ensuring that these activities are completed in a timely, cost-effective, and quality manner and that communications are consistent with GRA’s mission and policies. The Committee also looks for new and better ways for GRA to communicate with the groundwater community and working in concert with the Board and the Executive Committee, scopes, costs, and implements new communications initiatives. |
