When the Studies are done, I hope there will be money for phase two that will actually get the work done.

400k is a drop in the bucket. The amount of work, time planning (so they dont fck up) cant be priced. When a grant is written, they have to explain and justify each expenditure. It also must have a reasonable time frame. Also, those conducting the study have to write their pay into the grant..and if its too much they will reject the grant. Its also not a 9 to 5 job. They have to have it completed in their provided time frame or face loss of grant. Its not as easy as you think it is.
