SAB Presentation Guidance

1. SAB Presentation Guidance These first three slides contain presentation and meeting preparation guidance followed by a template of required slides for your presentation. Examples of successful SAB briefings can be found on our website: http://www.serdp.org/. Scroll down to the SAB section in the lower left hand corner and click on the links to view example briefings. Additional recommendations are provided in the Notes section of each slide. 25 minutes will be provided for your briefing followed by 20 minutes for questions/discussion. Prior to the SAB meeting, you will provide your briefing to the SERDP Office for a telephone pre-brief. You should prepare your briefing slides as you plan to present them to the SAB. Your pre-brief will not involve a formal presentation to the SERDP staff. Rather, we will step through and critique your briefing and informally discuss slide content and presentation style. The draft SAB meeting agenda provided is subject to change until all presenters have completed their pre-briefs. Note: This meeting is advertised in the Federal Register and is open to the public. Please do not include any classified or proprietary information. The meeting will be audio recorded.

2. SAB Presentation Guidance (cont’d) • MEETING PREPARATION CHECKLIST • Actions Required Prior to Pre-Brief • Make hotel reservations today for the SAB Meeting! Hotel Information will be available at a later date. Please stand by. • Make travel plans for the SAB Meeting. Plan to arrivea minimum of1 hour prior to your scheduled briefing time. Note:This initial presentation to the SERDP SAB is required and the travel costs are to be borne by the proposer. • Send your electronic PowerPoint presentation a minimum of 2 business days prior to your pre-brief by e-mail to Mr. Jonathan Bunger at Jonathan.Bunger.ctr@osd.mil. This will enable the Executive Director and Program Manager to review it prior to your pre-brief. • Actions Required Prior to the SAB Meeting • Bring 25 hard copies of your briefing presentation to the SAB meeting. To reduce the volume of paper, please print two slides per page and double-side your copies. • Provide a final electronic version of your presentation No Later Than February 26, 2010. Send it by email to Mr. Jonathan Bunger at Jonathan.Bunger.ctr@osd.mil

3. SAB Presentation Guidance (cont’d) • SAB Presentation Overview • There are three basic questions that the SAB expects the briefing to address: • What are you going to do, i.e. what are your objectives? • What is the scientific basis of your proposed work? • How are you going to accomplish your objectives? • The briefing is divided into 5 major parts. • Note the recommended time allotment for each portion of the presentation. • Introduction (1 minute) • Problem Statement and Objectives (1-2 minutes – Answers question 1) • Technical Background (6-8 minutes --Answers question 2) • Technical Approach (10-12 minutes – Answers question 3) • Programmatics (2-3 minutes)

6. Problem Statement • DoD conducts off-road military training and testing activities that can create significant air quality challenges and have the potential to negatively impact local and regional air quality.

7. Technical Objectives • Improve understanding of fugitive dust emission potential of soils from off-road military activities. • Determine impact of quantity and duration of activity, as well as military vehicle type, on wind erosion and fugitive dust generation potential. • Characterize relevant soil and surface properties to measure fugitive dust emission and wind erosion potential. • Determine recovery time of disturbed training lands with respect to wind erosion emission potential. • Obtain parameters and develop algorithms to simulate military vehicle disturbance impacts on the soil/surface state. • Improve DoD’s ability to achieve source compliance and ambient fence-line monitoring for fugitive dust emissions at their installations. • Develop and test a prototype, eye-safe, PM sensing lidar, suitable for monitoring fence-line dust concentration levels.

8. Technical Background • Test • Test • Test • sdfs • Improve DoD’s ability to achieve source compliance and ambient fence-line monitoring for fugitive dust emissions at their installations. • Large area monitoring with point sensors is impractical and expensive • Eye-safe lidar systems are currently large and very expensive • New fiber laser technologies open the door for compact eyesafe transmitters • New APD array detectors open the door for fast NIR receivers

10. Task 1 Task 2 Task 3 Task 4 Task 5 Technical Approach Develop a flow chart for the entire research project showing the major activities and the intellectual flow of the proposed project. This will provide both an overview and a point of reference for the remainder of the technical approach slides that follow. The “Tasks” can, but do not have to, match to the formal tasks in your proposal. This chart, coupled with those that follow, should take about half of your allotted presentation time and clearly/concisely explain how you will execute your project. [Estimated time spent on Technical Approach section:10-12 minutes]

11. Task 1a Pre- and post vehicle soil disturbance measurements will be conducted on selected sites at cooperating DoD installations • Measurements will first be taken at Ft. Riley and later at additional DoD installations in concert with DRI’s SERDP funded proposal. • Two or more soil types (locations) will be selected at each installation based upon their perceived or known vulnerability to wind erosion and potential to generate high vehicle dust emissions. • A minimum of one tracked and one wheeled vehicle will be used at each DoD installation for generating soil disturbances. • At least two vehicle speeds will be investigated and up to five subsequent passes will be made at each site on some experimental plots. • Each plot will be replicated three times, if possible.

12. Task 1a Pre- and post vehicle soil disturbance measurements will be conducted on selected sites at cooperating DoD installations • To reduce redundant data collection and to better correlate measurements across the individual tasks: • Some site plots will be additionally sampled for the laboratory wind tunnel studies outlined in task 1b. • The longer term field studies (task 1c) will also be carried out on a subset of these task 1a site plot locations.

13. Task 1a Pre- and post vehicle soil disturbance measurements will be conducted on selected sites at cooperating DoD installations • Measurements to be taken are: • Soil intrinsic properties • Soil temporal properties • Soil surface properties • Surface vegetative/residue properties • Need picture of surface here and possibly pictures of sieves, PI-SWERL, laser scanner, etc.

14. Task 1b Characterize relevant temporal and intrinsic soil and surface properties, via laboratory wind tunnel tray studies, to measure total dust as well as PM10 emission potential on a range of off-road disturbed and undisturbed military land soils. • Measurements to be taken are: • Soil intrinsic properties • Soil temporal properties • Soil surface properties • Surface vegetative/residue properties • Need picture of surface here and possibly pictures of sieves, PI-SWERL, laser scanner, etc.
