  2. How will the proposal improve our ability to conduct more effective research in 2001 and 2002? How valuable will the data and analysis be for prioritizing 2001 and 2002 research?
  3. How will the research or monitoring help resolve the low D.O. problem and help prioritize implementation options?
  4. How expensive is the proposal. Are there parts of the project that might be funded from other sources?
  5. How likely will the proposed methodology succeed in providing the information desired.
