building services.  The focus areas for this RFP are 1) fuel testing, 
2) emissions testing of black carbon and short lived climate pollutants, 3) 
quality assurance and data management, and 4) bridging laboratory and field 
testing with exposure and health research.  Proposals may include 
support for equipment (hardware and software) and staff training. Proposals 
must provide justification for how the proposed activities address regional 
need, current gaps at the testing center and overall goals for the 
center.  <o:p></o:p></div>
