Hello Connor - I've cc'd Yvette Gillies and Tina Neal, and hopefully they can help you or find someone who can help you. Given the recent activity, it's difficult to know how busy things might be on Friday! Emailing the website is a reliable contact for AVO, but it contacts the part of AVO that is in Fairbanks. :) Thank you, Cheryl Cameron -------- Connor Keesecker wrote: Hello, I am Connor Keesecker, a reporter with the student-run radio station located on the UAA campus. I am unsure if this is a reliable contact for this organization but I am inquiring to see if there was anyone available to do an interview. The interview would be regarding recent volcanic eruptions in Alaska with the primary focus being on how federal budget cuts have impacted the Alaska Volcano Observatory. I was hoping to arrange a live interview with a expert in this field on Friday May 17 at 4:30 pm for our program the News Feed. If this time is inconvenient then we could try to do a recorded interview sometime tomorrow or Thursday. Thank you for your consideration and I hope to hear back from you soon, Connor Keesecker KRUA News Reporter KRUA 88.1FM Alaska College Radio Station uaa_KRUA8@uaa.alaska.edu 907-786-4462 www.kruaradio.org -- Cheryl Cameron Geologist, Alaska Volcano Observatory Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys voice: 907-451-5012 fax: 907-451-5050
