IODP proposals are considered Active when they are under review by the Science Evaluation Panel (SEP), being considered for scheduling by the program's Facility Boards (JRFB, EFB, CIB), or in the SEP Holding Bin (HB). Proposals that have been unresponsive for 5 years are subject to deactivation.
This table is updated after SEP reviews are released and after each Facility Board meeting.
