<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">My name is Wendy and I am with the Center for Collaborative Conservation at Colorado State University. We are hoping you can help us get the word out on a job posting we have available.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:3.75pt">The Colorado Conservation Exchange is a nascent watershed investment fund, which is an innovative tool to strongly accelerate investment in watershed health and wildfire risk reduction in Colorado and potentially
across the American West. The Exchange builds on the success of both previous and ongoing watershed health efforts, but takes a more strategic, proactive and future-oriented approach. Our goal is to dramatically accelerate on-the-ground restoration, gain efficiencies
by working across multiple watersheds, link across public and private lands, and expand the pool of investors by developing markets for ecosystem services like water quality, carbon, and wildlife habitat. We are at the end of our design phase and now propose
to conduct a meaningful test of the Exchange, while also further developing its market infrastructure and the critical tools needed for full implementation.
