Summary Thoughts on SERC Research
•
Research must be Fact Based
•
Research must include Resource Development and Environment
• Natural geologic migration barriers important
• Monitoring & testing for control and assurance
• Research to Support a Well Defined Regulatory Structure
• Cooperation needed between ALL stakeholders
• Communication and education essential
