Reviews and recommendations

This information was not provided on the original proposals, but was generated during the review process.

Recommendation:
Date:
May 13, 1998

Comment:

Criteria 1: Technical Criteria - Incomplete: Same as for proposal # 9060.

Criteria 2: Objectives Criteria - Incomplete

Criteria 3: Milestones Criteria - Incomplete

Criteria 4: Resources Criteria - Incomplete


Recommendation:
Fund (low priority)
Date:
May 13, 1998

Comment:

In-lieu funding issue. Proposed tasks appear to be "in lieu of other expenditures authorized or required from other entities under other agreements or provisions of law". (Section 4.(h)(10)(A) of PNW Power Act).

Budget constraints. Proposal was found to be technically sound and appropriate but was deferred because other work was judged more urgent and funds were not adequate for all needed work.


Recommendation:
Inadequate
Date:
Jun 18, 1998

Comment:

The proposal is vague, especially the monitoring. Project coordination needs to be better described. Should BPA be funding this kind of work?
