Mr./Ms. ______,

I am a Science and Technology Studies PhD student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and am working on a study about environmental remediation and intergenerational ethics in relation to the Hanford. I am currently interviewing experts and decision makers to learn more about how they understand the relationship between these two issues, as well as their experiences with Hanford more generally.

Given your work in _, I would love to schedule a phone or Skype interview with you in the coming weeks. I should be free any time except _. Your assistance with this project would be invaluable, and greatly appreciated.

I have attached a form where you can indicate your consent to being interviewed, as well as any conditions you would like to place on the interview, such as anonymity. If you have any questions or concerns about the interview, the consent form, the research project, or anything else, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Thank you for your time,

Pedro de la Torre III PhD Student, Science and Technology Studies Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (281) 468-3764 delatorre.pedro@gmail.com
