With every Exchange, the "model" is refined. The Chesapeake Bay Exchange has proven to be particularly important in this regard. It is the first Exchange to have been undertaken within one ecosystem. Although the Bay watershed is large (comprising 64,000 squar miles), it has been possible for organizers from the three case studies to meet to share experiences and ideas and it is anticipated that they will continue to do so. It is also the first Exchange in which the members of the regional steering committee have committed to support post-Exchange activities at the local level. Another first was the participation of our colleagues from the Grench Regional Natural Park system, who have broadened the program's international scopte.
