Dear Colleagues,
 Additional information on the President's proposed FY2010 budget for
the DOE Office of Science can be found at:
 
http://www.cfo.doe.gov/budget/10budget/Content/Volumes/Volume4.pdf
 
HEP starts at:
 
http://www.cfo.doe.gov/budget/10budget/Content/Volumes/Volume4.pdf#page=231
 
The ILC budget request in FY2010 remains the same as in FY2009, namely $35M.  
Details can be found at:
 
http://www.cfo.doe.gov/budget/10budget/Content/Volumes/Volume4.pdf#page=268
 
It is not clear to me whether detector R&D is to be included in this 
amount, since there is a separate section on Detector Development on the 
next page with the following comments:
 
"
Current areas of investigation include R&D on detector technologies that could
be used to pursue new opportunities in future lepton colliders,... A diverse program
will be continued, including efforts on particle flow calorimeters, very low-mass 
trackers, ...
"

It should be noted that this represents the President's proposed budget,
which is only the beginning of a very long, complicated budget process.
