Note: A “Total Hrs” entry in magenta indicates a contingency amount, which may be subsequently reduced if some fraction of the time is used up by the 20A version of the project. Other project allocations may also be reduced if their fallback projects from earlier semesters obtain additional data during semester 20A.
