The traineeship grant proposal was submitted by Karl David Straub on March 19, 1991 on the behalf of the Arkansas EPSCoR Committee.

The duration of the original project was 9/1/91 through 8/31/92. A competitive renewal application for years two and three was submitted by Collis Geren for the Arkansas EPSCoR Committee and the DOE EPSCoR Subcommittee, and no cost extensions extended the program through October 15, 1996. The total funding from the Department of Energy, for this traineeship grant was $750,000 which was matched as required by participating Arkansas entities. The Arkansas Energy Office provided $725,000 of the match from stripper well funds. Participating universities provided the final required $25,000. This report describes the process the state followed in recruiting to fill training positions, problems encountered with the program, the participants, their research programs, and their progress.
