Hi All - <br>
<br>
So, I just got off the phone with the Fastlane Helpdesk person who
SWEARS that reviewers have already been assigned to my proposal
(which I really don't think is the case). I know Rose Dufour feels
that reviewers have been removed from the co-op proposals that
Bethany references below. I feel like this needs to be escalated to
a specific person at NSF to figure it out and stop giving us the
brush-off. Dave/Sue/Helen - Do we know anyone who could take this
issue in hand? Brian Midson?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Sheila<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I hope you
are well and hopefully may assist us with the issue at
hand. We recently submitted two new 5 year Cooperative
Agreements through Fastlane for the R/V Armstrong and for
the R/V Atlantis. Subsequently we updated both agreements.
On Friday, Dave Stephens attempted to finalize these in
Fastlane and received an error. Again today, after the
Program Director, Rose Dufour said reviewers were removed
(and therefore we should be able to complete the
submission) Dave received the same error. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I have
included the most recent email from Rose indicating that
reviewers were removed.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">We’d all very
much like to submit the updated agreements asap. Will you
please contact me or Dave Stephens directly if you have
any insight? My only guess at this point is that Fastlane
needs to refresh and that refresh takes time, possibly
overnight?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
