Comment:

Criteria 1: Technical Criteria - Yes

Criteria 2: Objectives Criteria - Yes

Criteria 3: Milestones Criteria - Yes

Criteria 4: Resources Criteria - Incomplete: Recommendation - Resources to accomplish this project are to a large part found in Project no. 8812008 Fisheries Technicians. I strongly recommend combining these 2 projects (see comments below for 8812008).

Recommendation:
YKFP Inadequate proposal, adequate purpose as a set
Date:
Jun 18, 1998

Comment:

This is an inadequate proposal considering the breadth of the YKFP. The proposal uses boilerplate language and does not sufficiently convey the current state of the project nor future efforts for FY99 and beyond.
