Abstract: The NSF FastLane Proposal Review function has been in use since March 1995 with the number of reviews increasing from 705 in its first 9 months of use to over 50,000 in the first 8 months of FY 99. NSF desires to survey the reviewers using this system to evaluate their view of it and to determine what improvements they might like to see in it. We are also interested in seeing if there is anything in the system that may cause them to decide not to return a proposal review.
