SSH Projects 2003
-----------------
2. All SSH projects from 2003 should make their final
payments by September 2004 (a year from when FY 2003 SSH
projects were signed). In several cases, money has not been
dispersed because no project invoices have been received.
Post recently contacted associations and project sponsors
through phone calls, encouraging them to initiate and finish
projects so that a timely closeout of FY03 funds will be
achieved. Post also intends to visit projects, where
possible, inspect final results, and report success stories.
