Your project proposals are more important now than ever before. The Missoula and San Dimas T&D Centers work on projects of national significance in all of the Forest Service’s program areas. The projects are suggested by field employees, then ranked in priority by national steering committees. Your proposal should state the problem the Centers are to solve and describe how the work is being done now. Show the advantages and savings (if appro- priate) of the proposed approach. If you know of work underway, or of similar projects, please describe them. If you have any questions about your proposal, please call one of the T&D Centers for further information. We can discuss technical approaches to solving your problem. Mail your proposal to either the Missoula or San Dimas T&D Center. We will forward it to the appropriate national steering committee for review. Proposals such as yours are the basis for the success of the Forest Service’s Technology and Development Program. Thank you!
