Exhibit 2, Director's Order No. 98, PROJECT PLAN

Date: November 25, 1997
Originating Office: Division of Contracting and General Services

Project Plan [For use with SF-424 to complete application requirements.]

1. Planned Work: [Briefly describe what you expect the project to accomplish. Convince the Cooperator(s) (and possible Federal auditors) of why this work needs to be done and why it is worth the Federal contributions. Include a legal description of the project property if possible - especially if the final agreement will be filed with the county property records. A map of the project property should generally be referenced and attached also.]

2. Contributions of the Parties: [Specify in detail what each party is contributing toward the total project, i.e., materials, equipment, personal or contracted labor, technical assistance, etc. The estimated costs of these contributions and the schedule for delivering or completing them may be incorporated here also or in separate sections as shown below. If Service funding is uncertain at this time, use phrases such as "Federal funding to be determined" or "approximately $_________, subject to the availability of funds".]

3. Estimated Costs: [Provide a breakout of materials, equipment, technical assistance, work to be contracted or contributed by the Service and the Cooperator(s). This establishes a basis for the Service's funding decision. Total estimated cost = Service share + Cooperator(s)' share. The Service's share should equal that shown in the termination clause of the agreement.]

4. Work Schedule: [Specify what has to be done and by when in order for the Service to accept the project and pay any progress invoices and the final invoice.]

5. Part of Larger Agreement: [Include this or a similar paragraph if the landowners are asked to sign this form.] This Project Plan is agreed upon between the Cooperator(s) and the representative of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and, before it is carried out, it will be incorporated in a Wildlife Cooperative Extension Agreement to be signed later. The Service's contributions will be committed in the final agreement and not by this Project Plan.

[Signatures of the parties are optional.]
