Sean, Several regionals have given their notice to NSF and Merit. To date it's only been possible for Merit to give ANS notice to terminate one ENSS. That was for ENSS 138 in Atlanta. Merit will soon, before the end of February, give notice to ANS to terminate all other ENSSs to meet the end of April deadline. Merit's termination notice will include ENSSs at the FIXs.

What happens if ANS doesn't get the 60-day termination notices 60 days in advance of the end of the cooperative agreement? Also, for the fednet crowd, once the cooperative agreement expires and ANS is no longer a federal network, and also has no IRC obligations, will they still be permitted to remain at the FIXes, or will that be considered less important given the plans to link the FIXes and the MAEs in various ways? WRT the FIXes, mostly I'm wondering about the fate of ENSS145, and pondering the fate of ICM AS 1800's external connectivity. Sean. (Just curious, and figuring someone here might know)
