     Dear Professor Hess,
     
     I obtained your e-mail address from your website.  I wanted to make 
     you aware of the United States Department of Energy's research 
     program, called the Environmental Management Science Program. This 
     program is making a solicitation of research proposals for 1997.  The 
     solicitation can be viewed on the World Wide Web at
     
     http://www.er.doe.gov/production/grants/fr97_03.html
     
     and our current research projects can be viewed at 
     
     http://www.doe.gov/em52/science-grants.html
     
     I am specifically notifying your program because of our need for heavy 
     element chemistry to solve some of the difficult challenges faced by 
     organizations attempting to manage nuclear waste and remediate 
     radioactive contamination in the environment. You will note in the 
     solicitation a discussion of many actinide chemistry issues, 
     particularly in the background section under "Radioactive Waste 
     Tanks."
     
     
     If you decide to participate, please note that the solicitation 
     requests preapplications by January 15.  Full applications must be in 
     by April 16.  Fax and e-mail preapplications are NOT acceptable.  Full 
     applications MAY be submitted without preapplications if you wish.
     
     Sincerely,
     
     Gordon Roesler, Ph.D.
