Re: G.G Problem with EPA P3 Student Design Competition for Sustainability?? Robert R Beattie 1 03 Dec 2008 20:30 EST

There are 6 versions of this application:
EPA-G2009-P3-Q1 – Agriculture
EPA-G2009-P3-Q2 – Materials and Chemicals
EPA-G2009-P3-Q3 – Energy
EPA-G2009-P3-Q4 – Information Technology
EPA-G2009-P3-Q5 – Water
EPA-G2009-P3-Q6 – Built Environment

I looked at Q6 and Q1, both of these had the note  "This opportunity is
only open to organizations, applicants who are submitting grant
applications on behalf of a company, state, local or tribal government,
academia, or other type of organization"

Which one did you open with the Individual Application note?  Perhaps it is
a mistake in formatting.  Why not contact the person listed as Agency
Contact
"Please contact Ron Josephon at (202) 343-9643."

I would like to see the one you did open. Which was it? If it is, indeed,
only for an individual, then you cannot send it as your organization AOR --
the DUNS number conflict will cause a G.g error.  Whomever sends it must
register as an individual to submit.  You, as an organization
representative,  could still submit as such, if it must be sent that way.
You would need to do the individual registration.

Sometimes, there is an option to submit as individual or organization.  Is
there a check box by the note you cite?

Let us know what happens.
