                             The Committee expressed concern,over the lack of  planning  for
                  present and future activities.
                  The application appeared to be essentially a rebuilding of  their  budget.
                  The request was primarily for staff support and a request to fill 10
                  vacant positions, plus support for 2  projects.  Committee  recommended
                  $250,000 in program staff support, $60,000.for grantee costs  and  $95,000
                  for ongoing projects.' This would in effect give.SVRMP some room for
                  expansion as well as keep the remaining 14  positions.  Further  hiring
                  should cease until a definite program can be identified.

                  Committee recommended a site visit to this region prior to Council
                  meeting or if this could not be arranged, to have key representation
                  of the program visit DPIIP to provide additional-information  regarding
                  future plans for the program.

                  Council recommended that the Susquehanna Valley RNP application be
                  funded at the level of $300,000 rather-Chan $400,,000.  A spirited
                  exchange took place between Council reviewers and DRMP  staff  who  had
                  met with the SVRMP RAG chairman, Grantee official and Coordinator
                  which resulted in Council upping its initial recommendation  by  $100,000.
