-QUERY,, is composed of 117 questions designed to ascertain particular 

 information regarding a water resource situation. Thirty of the possible 117 

 questions will be chosen at random for you to answer. Initially, you will be 

 asked to answer four open-ended questions. The remaining questions ask you to 

 select one answer from several choices. You should answer from your knowledge 

 of that organization or agency, i.e., the way you believe that the organization 

 or agency would behave. First, you are asked to enter your project name. 

 This is the name of the specific water resources issue to which LIAM will be 

 applied. Second, you are asked to name the organization or agency you are 

 planning to evaluate. This can be your own organization or another one related 

 to the specific project under assessment. Third, you are asked to list the 

 other participating organizations involved in the project. Fourth, you are 

 asked to define the project or problem in your own words, including the issues, 

 long- and short-term goals, and various levels of involvement for the organiza- 

 tion you are evaluating. If you choose to answer these open-ended questions, 

 your responses will be saved in a local file called "Tape 12." When you 

 complete both the open-ended questions and the multiple choice questions, you 

 can see your open-ended answers by typing:
