The CEO of your environmental consulting firm divides the staff into five Expert Teams. 

1. Field Investigation Team

2. Laboratory Investigation Team

3. Community/Risk Investigation Team

4. Solutions/Technology Investigation Team

5. Economic Investigation Team

  You will choose or be assigned to a team.  Each team will be responsible for:

• Preparing written answers to the guiding questions;

• Presenting the three minute argument in the debate;

• Presenting the two minute rebuttal in the debate.

   All the expert teams will choose a coordinator.  The primary responsibility of the coordinator will be to deliver the five minute summation FOR “the closing of downtown Ramford to vehicular traffic” after the experts have all presented their arguments.

   The guiding questions and assignments for team members are included in the “TEAM DESCRIPTION”.
