, Your annual reports should strictly follow the revised format shown in Attachment 2. Please read the explanation the type of information requested in each section of the report carefully -- it is intended to provide guidance to enable you to submit complete, professional and polished reports. In light ofFY 98 revisions to the report format as well as problems with annual reports received in previous years, I would like to specifically remind you: In Section III, to include a brief, easily-understood summary paragraph that will be used in preparing the Program's FY 98 Annual Summary Report. In this section, you should briefly summarize results to date, not just the project objectives. In Section V, "Relationship to RIPRAP" to list the task number(s) and title(s) of RIP RAP actions corresponding to your project. (You should have a copy of the revised RIPRAP dated March 6, 1998.) That a discussion of initial findings is required in Section VI of the report. That the "Recommendations" section (Section VII) specifically requests any recommendations for RIPRAP revisions and FY 2000 Program Guidance. That if the project is scheduled to continue through FY 2000, you are asked to provide an assessment of whether it should be considered on-track and ongoing in Section VIII. **In new Section IX. D., if your project was funded by the Bureau of Reclamation, to report the status of work accomplishment in terms ofthe percent of the work completed, and the projected costs to complete any remaining work. This information (and an accurate reporting of funds expended in Section IX.B) is absolutely necessary so that any surplus funds can be identified. This section will help Reclamation ensure timely billing by agencies and contractors and will free up unliquidated funding obligations. If you do not report this information, Reclamation may consider all of your unliquidated obligations to be surplus and may de-obligate them or deduct them from your FY 99 fund transfer. In Section IX. E. (a new item added last year), to note Recovery Program funds spent on publication charges (even ifit's $0.) That in Section x., status of data submission, "on track" is not an acceptable response. Instead, please indicate "not applicable," "data submitted on (date)," or "submission pending completion of data collection, expected (date)." In the Signature section, XI, to please insert your name as your "electronic signature." To remember to number your pages.
