Fiscal Year 1994 Annual Report for
WYOMING PROGRAM MANAGEMENT

5) Participated in updating the Recovery Implementation Program
Recovery Action Plan (RIPRAP).

6) Communicated with federal agency personnel and assisted in preparing
documents i nvol ved in transferri ng funds for Recovery Program-
sanctioned work. Assisted in carrying out Program activities and
initiatives.

VII. Recommendations: The following recommendations are provided upon
reflection on our participation in the Program during Fiscal Year 1994:

1. The timeliness of receiving materials prior to and after committee
meetings , needs to be improved. We continue to be in the situation
where materials are not available for thorough review (and
sharing/seeking review from and with others) sufficiently in advance
of meetings. It also seems that much time goes by after meetings
before appropriate follow-up occurs sometimes, including, but not
limited to, seeing draft meeting summaries, preparation (and/or
distribution) of correspondence agreed upon at meetings, and things
of this nature.

2. Implementation of an electronic mail system for the Recovery
Program, as an initial step towards developing an electronic
interface with additional capabil Hies to post reports and track
progress on specific projects, etc., should be made a higher
priority by Program management.

3. Additional emphasis on follow-up and carrying through on activities
and commitments should occur, so that fewer and less lengthy delays
on important activities are allowed to delay progress,

4. Greater specificity is needed in the RIPRAP relative to the
activities believed necessary and their costs and implementation
schedules. An appropriate mechanism to further develop a
prioritization of RIPRAP activities is needed,

VIII, Project Status: Wyoming's Program Management should be considered ongoing
and on-track. We are not aware of any significant changes with regard to
work load, funding needs, deadlines, etc., and hence do not anticipate a
need for thorough review our Program Management participation.
