Typically MOC funds requests only up to $10,000.
MOC has its research meeting in February. Thus, please have requests submitted prior to February 1. Requests can be submitted throughout the year, but preferred by 2/1.
If the request is a matching request for GREEEN, please make the request a week prior to the GREEEN deadline.
