‘‘project income,’’ and may not be used 

for matching purposes. 

It is the policy of this program to 

reject all requests for indirect or 

overhead costs as well as ‘‘in-kind’’

match contributions. In addition, grant 

funds must not be used to supplant 

private or local/state government funds 

currently spent for committee purposes. 

Funding requests from existing 

committees should focus entirely on the 

costs associated with the expansion 

efforts. Also, under no circumstances 

may business or labor officials 

participating on a labor-management 

committee be compensated out of grant 

funds for time spent at committee 

meetings or time spent in committee 

training sessions. Applicants generally 

will not be allowed to claim all or a 

portion of existing full-time staff as an 

expense or match contribution. For a 

more complete discussion of cost 

allowability, applicants are encouraged 

to consult the FY2007 FMCS Financial 

and Administrative Grants Manual, 

which will be included in the 

application kit. 

G. Application Submission and Review 

Process 

The Application for Federal 

Assistance (SF–424) form must be 

signed by both a labor and management 

representative. In lieu of signing the SF–

424 form, representatives may type their 

name, title, and organization on plain 

bond paper with a signature line signed 

and dated, in accordance with block 18 

of the SF–424 form. The individual 

listed as contact person in block 6 on 

the application form will generally be 

the only person with whom FMCS will 

communicate during the application 

review process. Please be sure that 

person is available once the application 

has been submitted. Additionally, it is 

the applicant’s responsibility to notify 

FMCS in writing of any changes (e.g. if 

the address or contact person has 

changed). 

We will accept applications beginning 

May 1, 2007, and continue to do so until 

July 31, 2008, or until all FY2007 grant 

funds are obligated. Awards will be 

made by September 30, 2008. Proposals 

may be accepted at any time between 

April 1, 2007 and July 31, 2008, but 

proposals received late in the cycle have 

a greater risk of not being funded due 

to unavailability of funds. Once your 

application has been received and 

acknowledged by FMCS, no 

applications or supplementary materials 

will be accepted thereafter. Applicants 

are highly advised to contact the FMCS 

Grants Program prior to committing any 

resources to the preparation of a 

proposal. 

An original application containing 

numbered pages, plus three copies, 

should be addressed to the Federal 

Mediation and Conciliation Service, 

Labor-Management Grants Program, 

2100 K Street, NW., Washington, DC 

20427. FMCS will not consider 

videotaped submissions or video 

attachments to submissions. FMCS will 

confirm receipt of all applications 

within 10 days thereof. 

All eligible applications will be 

reviewed and scored by a Grant Review 

Board. The Board(s) will recommend 

selected applications for rejection or 

further funding consideration. The 

Director or his/her designee will finalize 

the scoring and selection process. All 

FY2007 grant applicants will be notified 

of results and all grant awards will be 

made by September 30, 2008. 

Applications that fail to adhere to 

eligibility or other major requirements 

will be administratively rejected by the 

Director or his/her designee. 

H. Contact 

Individuals wishing to apply for 

funding under this program should

Conciliation Service as soon as possible

Proposed Project 

Low Back Exposure Assessment Tool 

for Mining—NEW—National Institute 

for Occupational Safety and Health 

(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control 

and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The Federal Mine Safety & Health Act 

of 1977, Section 501, enables CDC/ 

NIOSH to carry out research relevant to 

the health and safety of workers in the 

mining industry. Mining has one of the 

highest incidence rates for back pain of 

any industry, and back injuries are 

consistently the leading cause of lost 

work days in the industry. The objective 

of this project is to develop a selfadministered, paper and pencil risk 

assessment tool for the development of 

low back disorders specifically directed 

towards use in the mining industry. 

Many current methods of assessing the 

risk of low back disorders do not 

address stressors that are relatively 

unique to the mining environment, 

including the restricted vertical spaces 

in many coal mines that require workers 

to adopt stooping or kneeling postures 

for extended periods of their workday. 

The low back exposure assessment 

tool for mining will assess various 

occupational exposures associated with 

development of back disorders in the 

literature (postural demands, lifting, 

whole body vibration exposure, 

individual and psychosocial issues), as 

well as specific mining stressors and 

will develop a score that will be used 

to assess the degree of risk for the job 

and the individual. The tool will be 

useful in both prioritizing jobs that need 

interventions to reduce low back 

disorder risk, and in evaluating the 

effectiveness of interventions through 

tool administration before and after the 

implementation of an intervention. 

There will be no cost to the respondents 

other than their time.
