At that time we are also required under <br /> our agreement to request that the local sponsors provide their agreed share of local funding to <br /> meet this projected cost. <br /> This letter is that notification and request. We are currently forecasting a federal <br /> appropriation of $264,000 for this study in the coming fiscal year. Given this, and once we <br /> include the expected local in -kind services of all study sponsors that we have outlined in our <br /> Project Management Plan and other study documents, we believe we remain on track to utilize <br /> $100,000 in cash from the city of Eugene during the fiscal year which begins on October 1, <br /> 2005. This cash requirement has been previously coordinated together and will assure we are <br /> able to sustain our 50:50 cost - sharing balance in the study. <br /> Please make arrangements to furnish $100,000 in funding to the Corps in accordance <br /> with the timing specified in the FCSA. Under the agreement, the city has four options of the <br /> method for forwarding these funds to the Corps. If you have any questions about this or any <br /> other aspect of the study, please do not hesitate to contact me at (503) 808 -4703 or <br /> Martin.L.Hudson @usace.army.mil, or Mr. Eric Bluhm at (503) 808 -4759 or <br /> Eric.V.Bluhm @usace.army.mil. <br /> S'nc rely, ' <br /> Martin L.
