Defer all Mars/Advanced
Exploration technology work (with the exception of work being performed in
support of Jet Propulsion Laboratory) and place facilities on stand-by as
necessary until further notice.

Provide a plan that will assess placing on stand-by or limited use,
engineering and laboratory facilities at the Johnson Space Center, per reduced
requirements as impacted by the budget.

-

Assess all training requirements for the Flight Control Team and the Crew
and evaluate the need to maintain the present and planned simulator and
