STTR proposals will not be sought in FY07
Proposals for the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program will not be sought in FY07, as the annual DHS agency extramural budgets for research or research and development (R/R&D) is less than $1 billion, the minimum amount required to administer an STTR program.
