Hi Sarah,

Hope you had a good week so far. We have updated our BMU data. Now our spreadsheet contains a column labeled "fate", this column describes what happened to each of the BMUs, as there were a total 99 sent to CREP. Of those 99, 67 were successfully recovered and analyzed, 12 were not recovered, 14 were recovered however only had the base of the BMU and not the actual unit, and 6 were not deployed. 

We also were able to clarify that odd date, and it was a transcription error on CREPs part. That data has now been updated and corrected. I am attaching the updated data file, along with the updated data dictionary, and a file describing the different definitions of the fate column. 

Please let me know if you have any suggestions/ edits with these files. Thank you for all your help with this submission. 

Have a good weekend,
