Text Edition - February 1, 1999

The NSF Bulletin is produced in daily printable and electronic editions in 
order to provide the most accurate and timely information possible. Readers 
with web access may see the most up-to-date electronic version at 
http://www.nsf.gov/home/ebulletin/edaily.htm
Readers without web access are invited to send requests for a print-on-demand 
monthly edition to: paperbulletin@nsf.gov.

Would you like to be notified when new issues of the E-Bulletin are available? 
Sign up for the NSF Custom News Service at www.nsf.gov/home/cns/. If you 
don't have easy access to the Web, contact the NSF Information Center by 
phone, (703) 306-1234, or by email, info@nsf.gov, for help in signing up 
to receive alerts via email. 

The E-Bulletin announces key dates on which grant proposals are due at NSF 
for the current 4 months. These dates are subject to change; dates changed 
since original announcement are marked with an asterisk (*). In most cases, 
the time between announcement and deadline is at least three months. Key 
dates for other periods of time (for example, for an entire calendar or fiscal 
year) can be viewed from the NSF Online Documents - Deadlines page at www.
nsf.gov/pubsys/deadlines.htm

Further information on the programs in this publication is available from 
the offices listed for each entry; from the program announcement or letter 
referenced in each entry; from the annual NSF Guide to Programs (www.nsf.
gov/cgi-bin/getpub?gp), or from the NSF Home Page (www.nsf.gov). 

You may also phone the NSF Information Center (703-306-1234, info@nsf.gov) 
for assistance in identifying the most appropriate office or staff member 
for any question you have concerning NSF's funding opportunities. Individuals 
who are hearing-impaired should call either NSF's Telephonic Device for the 
Deaf (TDD) at 306-0090 or the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 
1-800-877-8339 for further information. 

Program Deadlines: Unless otherwise stated in an announcement or solicitation, 
proposals must be received by the established deadline date. However, a proposal 
received after a deadline may be acceptable if it carries a legible proof-
of-mailing date assigned by the carrier and the proof-of-mailing date is 
not later than one week prior to the deadline date. An asterisk (*) indicates 
a deadline that has been changed since their original announcement. 

Target Dates: Unless otherwise stated in an announcement or solicitation, 
a proposal received after these cutoff dates will be reviewed, although it 
may miss a particular panel meeting. 

Dates Not Specified: Most NSF programs that do not have a specific deadline 
or target date will accept a proposal at any time of the year. Occasionally, 
a program's deadlines will vary. Listings for programs with no specified 
dates appear in the E-Bulletin at the end of each section. Please review 
associated documents for further information. Once a proposal is received 
at the NSF, it takes approximately 6 months for processing, review, and an 
award decision.
