appropriations for expansion and

continuation projects are available,

these grants may be extended or

continued for a limited time at a 40

percent cash match ratio. The dollar

range of awards is as follows:

—Up to $35,000 in FMCS funds per

annum for existing company/plant or

single department public sector

applicants;

—Up to $50,000 over 18 months for new

company/plant committee or single

department public sector applicants;

—Up to $75,000 in FMCS funds per

annum for existing area, industry and

multi-departmental public sector

committee applicants;

—Up to $100,000 per 18-month period

for new area, industry, and multidepartment public sector committee

applicants.

Applicants are reminded that these

figures represent maximum Federal

funds only. If total costs to accomplish

the objectives of the application exceed

the maximum allowable Federal

funding level and its required grantee

match, applicants may supplement

these funds through voluntary

contributions from other sources.

Applicants are also strongly encouraged

to consult with their local or regional

FMCS field office to determine what

kinds of training may be available at no

cost before budgeting for such training

in their applications. A list of our field

leadership team and their phone

numbers is included in the application

kit.

F. Cash Match Requirements and Cost

Allowability

Applicants for new labor-management

committees must provide at least 10

percent of the total allowable project

costs. Applicants for existing

committees must provide at least 25

percent of the total allowable project

costs. All matching funds may come

from state or local government sources

or private sector contributions, but may

generally not include other Federal

funds. Funds generated by grantsupported efforts are considered

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

for matching purposes.

It will be 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 these 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 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 FY98 FMCS Financial

and Administrative Grants Manual

which will be included in the

application kit.

G. Application Submission and Review

Process

Applications should be signed by

both a labor and management

representative and be postmarked no

later than May 2, 1998. No applications

or supplementary materials can be

accepted after the deadline. It is the

responsibility of the applicant to ensure

that the application is correctly

postmarked by the U.S. Postal Service or

other carrier. An original application

containing numbered pages, plus three

copies, should be addressed to the

Federal Mediation and Conciliation

Service, Labor-Management Program

Services, 2100 K Street NW.,

Washington, DC 20427. FMCS will not

consider videotaped submissions or

video attachments to submissions.

After the deadline has passed, all

eligible applications will be reviewed

and scored initially by one or more

Customer Grant Review Boards. The

Board(s) will recommend selected

applications for further funding

consideration. The Director, LaborManagement Program Services, will

finalize the scoring and selection

process. The individual listed as contact

person in Item 6 on the application form

will generally be the only person with

whom FMCS will communicate during

the application review process.

All FY98 grant applicants will be

notified of results and all grant awards

will be made before September 15, 1998.

Applications submitted after the May 2

deadline date or that fail to adhere to

eligibility or other major requirements

will be administratively rejected by the

Director, Labor-Management Program

Services.

H. Contact

Individuals wishing to apply for

funding under this program should

contact the Federal Mediation and

Conciliation Service as soon as possible

to obtain an application kit. These kits
