| Subject: | NIH Limits Awards under Continuing Resolution |
Issued by National Institutes of Health (NIH), (http://www.nih.gov)
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has issued a notice to awardees of reductions in funding levels for non-competing grant awards under the continuing resolution. The approach outlined in the notice (NOT-OD-09-002) is consistent with NIH's strategy in the past few years.
The notice reads:
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) continues to operate on a continuing resolution (CR) [Public Law 110-329 Consolidated Security, Disaster Assistance, and Continuing Appropriations Act, 2009] that currently extends through March 6, 2009. The CR applies the terms of the FY 2008 appropriations for the period covered by the CR. Until the final FY 2009 appropriation is enacted, NIH will issue non-competing research grant awards at a level below that indicated on the most recent Notice of Award (generally up to 90% of the previously committed level). This is consistent with our practice during the CRs of FY 2006 - 2008. NIH will consider upward adjustments to these levels after the final appropriation is enacted, but expects institutions to monitor their expenditures carefully during this period.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
