TAG and Task Force meetings were held before and after the EAC meeting Face to face meetings were held the day before and the day after the EAC meeting to take advantage of the opportunities to advance the goals of the EAC. We saw major advantages to the live meetings with little additional travel and cost burden on our participants. TAG and Task Force meetings are scheduled for the May EAC meeting in Portland. This practice is successful and will likely continue going forward, but one drawback is that any actions at these meetings cannot be added to the current meeting docket.
