submitted on the standard forms

provided in the application kit.

NOTE: Facsimile copies will not be

accepted.

—The application shall be executed by

an individual authorized to act for the

applicant organization and to assume

for the applicant organization the

obligations imposed by the terms and

conditions of the cooperative

agreement award.

—Number of copies: The package

should contain one original, signed

and dated application plus at least

two copies. Ten additional copies are

optional and will expedite processing

of the application. A disk copy of the

Abstract and the Program Narrative

(in WordPerfect 5.2 format) would

also be helpful to SSA but are

optional.

—Length: Applications should be brief

and concise as possible, but assure

successful communication of the

applicant’s proposal to the reviewers.

application (Part III) may not exceed

150 double spaced pages (excluding

the resume and outside funding

appendices), typewritten on one side

using standard (81⁄2′ x 11′) size paper

and 12 point font. Attachments that

Attachments not applicable to the

project narrative do not count toward

this page limit.

—Attachments/Appendices, when

included should be used only to

provide supporting documentation.

Brochures, videos, etc., should not be

included because they are not easily

reproduced and are therefore

inaccessible to reviewers.

the applicant must clearly indicate

the application submitted is in

response to this announcement (SSA–

ORES–98–1). The applicant also is

encouraged to select a SHORT
