Subject to acceptance of AOW comments by EWOS both AOW and OIW intend to informally accept the PTN027 work in November before the EWOS TA. 3 PROBLEMS Many contracted TSDs have overspent, particularly those involved in the CMIP technical work. These will need to make resource available to the project over the next 2 weeks to conclude the work by the end of October. 4 OVERALL PLAN Project is still on track for submission of work for approval by the EWOS TA in November. The Project Report will be with the EWOS Secretariat by the 24th October 1994.
