SUMMARY: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) 
publishes this notice to extend the date by which Sea Grant Programs

application deadline for PI's to the state Sea Grant program remains 
the same.

by the National Sea Grant Office (NSGO) in the case of an applicant in

State Sea Grant Programs must submit to the NSGO all full proposals by 
4 p.m. EST on December 1, 2004.
