Kindly note the upcoming deadline of June 1, 2020 for submitting comments regarding the recent NSF Dear Colleague Letter (DCL) on the "Competition of Operations of an NSF-supported Geophysical Facility to Succeed the GAGE and SAGE Facilities" issued by NSF (https://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2020/nsf20037/nsf20037.jsp).
NSF is encouraging comments from the community on desired capabilities, and associated rationales, for this future geophysical facility. Comments should be submitted as a pdf document not to exceed 3 pages in length and sent to Maggie Benoit at earfacilities@nsf.gov.

This DCL outlines NSF's plans for an open recompetition of the management of the SAGE and GAGE seismic and geodetic facilities and its expectation that this process will result in a single, integrated facility managed by a single entity at the end of the current SAGE and GAGE cooperative agreements on September 30, 2023. NSF plans to issue a solicitation for this new facility in the second quarter of calendar year 2021 with a due date for full proposals in the first quarter of 2022.
