*These numbers may change slightly due to false negative/positive codes on AD applications. Data from October 2018 Council are shown italicized in parentheses. October 2019 data were run on 8/12/2019, and October 2018 data were run on 7/27/2018. Applications that had been withdrawn were excluded from Table I. Contracts are not included. Dollar amounts shown are the first-year total costs requested (AD application information for October Councils is generated from a database that does not display direct costs).

*Data for each Council were run prior to that Council's meeting: January 2019 on 12/21/2018, May 2019 on 4/23/2019, and October 2019 on 8/14/2019. Only applications that are normally percentiled were included. As applications in response to RFAs, and a few other applications, are not normally percentiled, the number of applications in Table 2 is usually less than the corresponding number of RPG applications in Table IA.
