of attention to environmental issues in CD conferences.  Any 
thoughts on what is going on, or what should be going on?]

RE: > The Fed is sponsoring a conference on sustainable 
community
development.

Surprisingly, the Fed conference announcement makes no 
reference to the
environmental aspects of sustainable community development. In 
most
contexts, the discussion of sustainable development has to include 
the
environmental impacts of development in addition to the economic, 
social and
equity issues.
