However, that has now been pushed out per the contract mods.
As best I can tell, WB8 will continue testing probably until fall. Rough guess based on moneis allocated and work discussion.

April 30 is next recovery report.... but that is flimsy for the last few reports because of the "Final Report" checkbox being split personality.

It would be a nice surprise, but I am not going to hold my breath.

Reminder folks, the only actual report that is required to be released is one confirming that the money has been spent -- i.e. that EMC2 completed the contract. Anything else is dependent on the Navy deciding to release it.

Remember folks, there are two different sets of requirements here. One is the "Recovery Act" requirement for "transparency" which results in the quarterly blerb on the RA web site. The other is the CONTRACT requirement for a "Final Report". I find nothing that requires the Contract final report to be released at all.

This may just be a fuller explanation of what cuddihy stated above.
