Test proposals may be mailed to: Board of Equalization, Fuel Taxes Division, MIC: 30, P.O. Box 942879, Sacramento, CA 94279-0030. Test proposals should include: The test should provide documented test results that are verifiable and representative of the diesel fuel used in the nontaxable manner. Usage tests must describe the process, the vehicles tested and the date of the tests.

In recent years the increased number of proposals and widening variety of considerations needed in the review process, along with efforts to make the process more transparent and accessible, overwhelmed the traditional process. Thus far electronic submission has resulted in fewer flawed proposals, a more timely and ordered review process, and opportunity for fuller consideration by the appropriate bodies and the university community at large.

When you take the test, there is a box to check to request that the results be sent to you by e-mail (see http://www.indiana.edu/~rcr). The e-mail is the only documentation that you will receive. It is not necessary to include the e-mail with your grant proposal. The following section explains what forms must be sent with a proposal.

Proposals must be prepared using the forms in the Guide for Proposers, and sent on paper in one (1) original and five (5) copies, accompanied by an electronic copy on CD-Rom, to the Commission at the following address: Reminder: Please note that the deadline applies to the receipt of proposals by the Commission.

Proposals should be submitted via Internet using the on-line form and uploading system provided in the appropriate call (see above) on or before Friday 27 April 2007 16.00 CET. Proposals for uploading must be composed of 1 file only, in Word, rtf or pdf and comply with the above presentation rules. Revisions to submitted proposals will not be accepted.

Answer: When determining where to submit your proposal, you should also consider if the proposed research project falls within the realm of research that NSF normally supports. If so, then you will need to identify a specific disciplinary program that is related to the research goals of the proposal, as CAREER proposals are submitted directly to disciplinary programs for review.

Answer: All proposals to EHR should be submitted to the Research, Evaluation and Communication Division (REC). REC will coordinate review of proposals among the other Divisions. Answer: Before preparing your CAREER proposal, you should refer to the Antarctic Research Opportunities and Proposal Guide (NSF 01-81) or the Arctic Research Program Announcement (NSF 00-96). Both of these documents are available from the Office of Polar Programs Web page (http://www.nsf.gov/home/polar/start.htm).

Letters of Intent will only be accepted by email. Letters of Intent submitted by hard copy or fax will not be accepted. Full proposals will only be accepted through grants.gov. Full proposals submitted by email, fax or hard copy will not be accepted. Graduate students may be included on applications. Graduate students should not be listed as principal investigators, co-principal investigators, or senior personnel.

For most award mechanisms, yes, you may. For certain award mechanisms, however, Letters of Intent are required. In that case, failure to submit a Letter of Intent may render your proposal noncompliant. Letters of Intent are important to help us recruit qualified reviewers for peer review of your proposal.
