Dear Coral-List,

The Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL) is conducting research on tourism 
related fees (e.g. entrance fees, diving user fees) to support
sustainable financing of marine protected areas.  We plan to use the 
results of our research to assist park managers and
communities who are considering setting up such fees.

If you were involved with setting up a tourism fee system at a marine 
protected area, or have a good understanding of the process
which was undertaken, we would greatly appreciate your assistance.

Please take five minutes to fill out our questionnaire:  
<http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=289771185460>

If you are a tour operator, please fill out a separate questionnaire 
at: <http://surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=560921194523>

If you have any questions or other information to share, please contact 
Sherry Flumerfelt at sflumerfelt at coral.org or Florence
Depondt at fdepondt at coral.org.

Thank you for your help.

Best wishes,
Florence
