Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing on behalf of the Environmental Emergencies Section of
Environment Canada in Downsview, Ontario. A component of our office's
role
is to provide technical advice and scientific expertise to responders
during
an oil or chemical spill on the Great Lakes. One of the tools we have
developed to assist us in the provision of this advice is a collection of
Environmental Sensitivity Atlases for the Ontario Shorelines of the Great
Lakes and their connecting channels. These Atlases were designed to aid
in
identifying sensitive features and resources and to establish priorities
for
clean-up of spills of oil and other hazardous material.
Currently, we are creating an electronic copy (CD-ROM) of our
Environmental
Sensitivity Atlases. To make our CD-ROM Atlas more useful, we would like
to
incorporate the photos of each Great Lakes species of bird, mammal, and
fish
found in the Great Lakes Basin. Locating accurate high quality photos
for
each of the species identified in our atlas has been an incredible
challenge. In a recent web search for images we have located several
possible sources for high quality photos. We are contacting these
sources
to solicit the use of their photos for our Atlas. The Native Fish
Conservancy website contains many photos of fish required for our Atlas.
Can you help us by providing me with the email addresses of photographers
Konrad Schmidt, William Pflieger, and Scott Niemela, as I wish to
contact
them regarding their fish photographs featured on your website.
