Each NOS program office has prepared impact statements which have been submitted to NOAA's Budget Office. The funds will be rescinded within the next week. Volunteers will have a rotational schedule on an average of once every four months. There will be a full day workshop sponsored by the NOAA Civil Rights Office and provided by the American Association for the Advancement of Science to help prepare volunteers to work with the students. I would also like to remind you Sexual Harassment Training is being offered for NOS employees on September 15th and 28th.
Space is still available for both session.
I am told this is an excellent session. The contest is scheduled to end on August 30, 1999. With all the talent we have in NOS, I am looking forward to seeing the final product.
