Quarterly Report: <br /> <br />Since the last quarterly report was filed the primary focus of the grant has been in the <br />following areas: <br /> <br />· Automation of the daily processes for the remote and host sites. <br /> Long-term funding of the central repository. <br />· Upgrading of the NDRIN server <br />· Creation of NDRIN advertising brochures. <br />· Marketing and promotion of NDRIN to non-participating counties, as well as, <br /> potential Intemet subscribers. <br /> <br />The Microfilming project has been completed in all forty-four participating counties and <br />all the re-takes have been completed. <br /> <br />During the past quarter thirty-three counties agreed to help in the long-term funding of <br />NDRIN. The NDRIN Board then sent a letter to the remaining twenty North Dakota <br />counties asking them to reconsider their decision not to help in funding the NDRIN <br />electronic central repository. This letter asked that each county consider contributing a <br />portion of the proceeds they get from the newly enacted "Document Preservation Fee" to <br />help fund the NDRIN electronic central repository. NDRIN counties were asked <br />contribute $2/document, while the non-NDRIN counties were asked to contribute <br />$1/document. <br /> <br />An NDRIN advertising brochure was developed and sent to over 600 potential NDR1N <br />subscribers in late December. We are currently working with many of those potential <br />subscribers to answer any questions that they ma have about NDRIN. <br /> <br />During the past quarter we finished testing the modification and integrating the Non-ECS <br />vendor's applications into the NDRIN central repository. Walsh and McKenzie counties <br />were the pilot sites for their respective vendors and have been able to upload and view <br />their data through the NDRIN web site. We now are working on automating the process <br />of extracting and upload the Non-ECS vendor's data into the NDRIN central repository. <br /> <br />Eleven counties that were not part of the original pilot project have signed on to become <br />full members of NDRIN. Equipment has been ordered to allow these counties to begin to <br />transmit their electronic land records to the NDRIN central repository. The equipment is <br />currently being configured and should be shipped to each county with two weeks. <br /> <br />The following key project dates have been defined: <br /> <br />FEMA project complete <br />Data collection for Non-ECS counties <br /> <br />December 31, 2001 <br />January 18, 2002 <br /> <br /> <br />
