1See Docket No. RM2018–3, Order Adopting 

Final Rules Relating to Non-Public Information, 

June 27, 2018, Attachment A at 19–22 (Order No. 

4679). 

a. Grant Officers will report the 

conflict to the NASA Shared Services 

Center’s (NSSC) OGC and copy the 

award’s Technical Officer. The NSSC 

OGC then will inform HQ OGC of the 

reported conflict. In consultation with 

OGC and the relevant Technical Officer, 

the Grant Officer must review the COI 

and take appropriate action, as 

necessary. 

i. When an institution notifies NASA 

of a COI that involves any foreign 

governments, their instrumentalities, or 

any other entities owned, funded, or 

otherwise controlled by a foreign 

government, the cognizant Grant Officer 

must review the COI and take 

appropriate action, as necessary, in 

consultation with the award’s Technical 

Officer, OGC, and the NASA Office of 

International and Interagency Relations 

(OIIR). 

ii. If fraud, misrepresentation, or 

related misconduct is suspected in 

relation to any COI notification 

submitted to NASA, then the Grant 

Officer or Technical Officer also will 

refer the matter to the NASA Office of 

Inspector General and OGC’s 

Acquisition Integrity Program. 

b. If a Grant Officer must take 

appropriate actions after conducting the 

reviews described above, then they will 

do so in accordance with the remedies 

for noncompliance and termination 

provisions in 2 CFR 200.339 through 

§ 200.343. Remedies for noncompliance 

include but are not limited to: 

i. Temporarily withholding payment, 

ii. Disallowing all or part of the cost 

of an award activity, 

iii. Wholly or partly suspending or 

terminating the award, 

iv. Initiating referrals for 

consideration of suspension or 

debarment proceedings, and 

v. Withholding further Federal awards 

for the project or program. 

c. A Grant Officer intending to take 

action per paragraph (b) of this section, 

with the exception of paragraph (b)(iv), 

will notify each institution about the 

specific reason for the action and will 

adhere to the requirements in GCAM 

section 7.13, Appealing a Suspended or 

Terminated Award, as necessary. 

However, notice of suspension or 

debarment proceedings will be issued 

consistent with 2 CFR part 180, as 

adopted by NASA at 2 CFR part 1880. 

Additionally, if NASA determines that 

an investigator will be disqualified from 

participating on an award due to a COI 

that cannot be managed, reduced, or 

eliminated, then NASA will offer the 

institution an opportunity to address the 

COI prior to taking action on the award. 

Appendix D, Award Terms and 

Conditions, is revised as follows: 

D39. Conflict of Interest Policy 

Requirements 

a. All NASA grant and cooperative 

agreement recipients shall comply with 

the conflict of interest policy and 

notification requirements in section 3.3, 

Conflicts of Interest Policy, of the NASA 

Grant and Cooperative Agreement 

Manual (GCAM), as amended by Grant 

Information Circular 23–07, Conflict of 

Interest Policy. 

End of Policy and Term and Condition 

NASA has implemented the new 

policy and term and condition through 

GIC 23–07, which modifies sections 3.3, 

Conflicts of Interest Policy, and 

Appendix D, Award Terms and 

Conditions, of the Grant and 

Cooperative Agreement Manual. The 

policy and term and condition are 

effective December 1, 2023, and the 

term and condition will be placed into 

new and amended awards at that time.

Chief, Grants Policy and Compliance.
