I2M’s Michael D. Campbell, P.G., P.H., Senior Principal and Chief Geologist/Hydrogeologist, has been recently appointed to the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Earth Science and Geology. This is one of the new journals offering open access and rapid publication at minimal page costs that Mr. Campbell has been supporting in the past few years. Andrew Thomas, Editorial Coordinator of Madridge Publishers also asked for an editorial of his expectations for this journal.
