Virtual Project Review Workshops
EWG will host three project review workshops in mid-January for STP-S applicants. These workshops will use the Zoom virtual platform. The Illinois workshop will be on January 19, 2022. The Missouri workshops will be on January 14 and 21, 2022. At these workshops, applicants will receive feedback from a panel of experts with regards to their proposed application. This workshop is intended for applicants that have at the very least a specific project concept to present for review. Applicants are required to submit a Project Review Workshop Information Form or preliminary application, including a project location map, before the workshop so the panelists can gain some knowledge of the projects they will be reviewing. Each applicant will have a half-hour to discuss up to two projects. Attendance at this workshop is encouraged, but not required to submit a project application. Registration for these workshops will be available starting in early December.
