One or more Steering Committee members may sponsor a specific research project or conduct a project or topic of inquiry and then work with CFEOR to expand the value of that project (through improving research design or developing new ways to communicate the projects findings). The scope of work for Sponsored Projects is developed by the sponsoring member and submitted to the Science Committee for review. Funding for implementing a Sponsored Project is provided by the host Steering Committee member(s).

The Chair or Vice Chair of the Steering Committee in consultation with the Science Committee may endorse research projects upon request by the Principle Investigator (PI) of the proposed research. The nature and extent of endorsement will vary depending upon proposed projects ability to complement the goals and efforts of CFEOR. The Steering Committee requires approximately three weeks for processing the request of PI and making the decision.
