Grantee Responsibilities and Federal Requirements a. The grantee has full responsibility for the conduct of the project or activity supported under this grant and for adherence to the grant conditions. Although the grantee is encouraged to seek the advice and opinion of NSF on special problems that may arise, such advice does not diminish the grantee's responsibility for making sound scientific and administrative judgments and should not imply that the responsibility for operating decisions has shifted to NSF. The grantee is responsible for notifying NSF about: (1) any allegation of research misconduct that it concludes has substance and requires an investigation in accordance with NSF research misconduct regulations published at 45 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 689; or (2) any significant problems relating to the administrative or financial aspects of the grant. b. The requirements of this grant are contained in these Grant General Conditions unless otherwise specified in the notice of award. The applicable Federal administrative standards are incorporated by reference and are contained in 2 CFR 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). 2 CFR 200 also applies to commercial organizations, including small businesses. These Grant General Conditions (GC-1) serve as the Foundation s implementation of 2 CFR 200. If the GC-1 is silent on a specific area covered by 2 CFR 200, the requirements specified in 2 CFR 200 must be followed. c. By acceptance of this grant, the grantee agrees to comply with the applicable Federal requirements for grants and cooperative agreements and to the prudent management of all expenditures and actions affecting the grant including the monitoring of subrecipients (if applicable). Specific guidance on subrecipient monitoring and management can be found in 2 CFR A listing of National Policy Requirements that grantees must adhere to, where applicable, is located at: d. Documentation for each expenditure or action affecting this grant must reflect appropriate organizational reviews or approvals that should be made in advance of the action. Organizational reviews are intended to help assure that expenditures are allowable, necessary and reasonable for the conduct of the project, and that the proposed action: 1. is consistent with grant terms and conditions; 2. is consistent with NSF and grantee policies; 3. represents effective utilization of resources; and 4. does not constitute a significant project change (see Article 8). Nothing in this article shall be construed to require administrative reviews or documentation that duplicates those already required by existing organizational systems or by applicable Federal standards, e.g., 2 CFR 200.4 Page 4 e. The grantee is responsible for ensuring that the Principal Investigator(s) (PIs) or Project Director(s) (PDs) and co-pis/co-pds receive a copy of the grant conditions, including: the notice of award, the budget, these general terms and conditions, any special terms and conditions and any subsequent changes in the grant conditions. These grant conditions are made available to the grantee by NSF in electronic form at managing/general_conditions.jsp?org=nsf, and may be duplicated, copied or otherwise reproduced by the grantee as appropriate. This provision does not alter the grantee's full responsibility for conduct of the project and compliance with all grant terms and conditions. Notices of award are available electronically via the NSF FastLane system at https://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/fastlane.jsp. Sponsored project offices are able to view, print and/or download NSF notices of award for their organizations and Principal Investigators/Project Directors (PIs/PDs) and co- PIs/co-PDs can access their individual notices of award through use of the FastLane system. 2. Prior Approval Requirements Unless otherwise specified in the notice of award, the Federal administrative requirements for prior agency approval summarized in 2 CFR , and the provisions of the governing cost principles, the requirement to obtain NSF prior approval applies only to the activities and expenditures specified below. a. Consistent with 2 CFR 200, written prior approval from the cognizant NSF Grants and Agreements Officer is required for: 1. Significant Project Changes (a) Transfer of the project effort (see Article 8. See also 2 CFR ) (b) Change in objective or scope (see Article 8. See also 2 CFR ) (c) (d) Disengagement or change of PI/PD or co-pi/co-pd (see Article 8. See also 2 CFR ) Change in the amount of approved cost sharing reflected on Line M of the grant budget (see Article 29) 2. Rearrangement and Reconversion Costs (see Article 11) 3. Salaries of administrative or clerical staff (see 2 CFR ) 4. Travel costs for dependents (see Article 10. See also 2 CFR ) 5. Additional categories of participant support costs other than those described in 2 CFR (see Article 7. See also 2 CFR and the NSF Grant Proposal Guide (GPG) Chapter II.C.2.g(v)). b. Written prior approval from the cognizant NSF Program Officer is required for transfer of funds budgeted for participant support (see Article 7. See also 2 CFR (c)(5)). c. Requests for the prior approvals identified above (as well as other types of award related notifications or requests stipulated in the AAG Chapter II, Exhibit II-1) must be submitted via the use of NSF s electronic systems.5 Page 5 3. Pre-Award Costs a. Grantees may approve pre-award costs incurred within the ninety calendar day period before the start date of the grant. Requests for approval of pre-award costs for periods greater than 90 calendar days must be submitted electronically via NSF s electronic systems. Pre-award expenditures prior to the funding of an increment within a continuing grant are not subject to this limitation or approval requirement, but are subject to paragraph c. below. b. Pre-award costs must be necessary for the effective and economical conduct of the project and the costs must be otherwise allowable in accordance with Article 12. c. Pre-award expenditures are made at the grantee's risk. Grantee authority to approve pre-award costs does not impose an obligation on NSF: (1) in the absence of appropriations; (2) if a grant is not subsequently made; or (3) if a grant is made for a lesser amount than the grantee anticipated. 4. No-Cost Extensions a. Grantees may authorize a one-time extension of the end date of the grant up to 12 months if additional time beyond the established end date is required to assure adequate completion of the original scope of work within the funds already made available. 1 A single extension, which shall not exceed 12 months, may be made for this purpose and must be made prior to the originally established end date. As stipulated in 2 CFR (d)(2), this one-time extension may not be exercised merely for the purpose of using any unliquidated balances. b. Grantees shall notify NSF, providing supporting reasons for the extension, and the revised period of performance, at least ten calendar days prior to the end date specified in the grant to ensure accuracy of NSF s award data. All grantee-authorized extensions must be submitted electronically via NSF s electronic systems. c. Requests for no-cost extensions beyond the above referenced authority must follow the procedures set forth in AAG Chapter I.D.3.c. 5. Consultant Services (also referred to as Professional Service Costs) Costs for professional and consultant services, including those who are members of a particular profession or possess a special skill and who are not officers or employees of the performing organization, are allowable when reasonable in relation to the services rendered and when not contingent upon recovery of costs from NSF. If not included in the grant budget, anticipated services must be justified and information furnished on each individual s expertise, primary organizational affiliation, normal daily compensation rate, and number of days of expected service. Consultants travel costs, including subsistence, may be included. If requested, the grantee must be able to justify that the proposed rate of pay is reasonable. Additional information on the allowability of consultant costs is available in 2 CFR Awardees are not authorized to extend an award that contains a zero balance.6 Page 6 6. Equipment The standards for managing and disposing of property furnished by NSF or whose cost was charged to a project supported by an NSF grant are outlined in 2 CFR See also FAQ of the Frequently Asked Questions for The Office of Management and Budget s Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards at 2 CFR 200 (dated November, 2014) regarding Equipment and A-110 Screening Procedures. a. Title to Equipment Non-profit Organizations Unless otherwise specified in the grant, title to equipment purchased or fabricated with NSF grant funds by a college or university or other non-profit organization will vest in the grantee organization upon acquisition in accordance with 15 USC Such equipment is considered exempt property and shall be acquired and used in accordance with paragraph c below. In special situations, the grant may require that title to equipment purchased, acquired or fabricated by the grantee with NSF funds pass directly to the government upon acquisition. b. Title to Equipment Commercial Organizations Unless otherwise specified in the grant, title to equipment purchased or fabricated with NSF grant funds by a small business or other for-profit organization will vest in the Government. Such equipment will be acquired and used in accordance with paragraph c below. c. Conditions for Acquisition and Use of Equipment 1. Grantee Assurance. The grantee will assure that for each purchase of equipment, it is: (a) (b) (c) necessary for the research or activity supported by the grant; not otherwise reasonably available and accessible; of the type normally charged as a direct cost to sponsored agreements; and (d) acquired in accordance with organizational practice. 2. General Purpose Equipment. Expenditures for general-purpose equipment are typically not eligible for support (see AAG Chapter IV.D.2.b). 3. Equipment Usage. The equipment must remain in use for the specific project for which it was obtained in accordance with 2 CFR (c)(1), unless the provision in 2 CFR (c)(4) applies. 4. Equipment Sharing. The equipment must be shared on other projects or programs in accordance with 2 CFR (c)(1).7 Page 7 5. Property Management Standards. The grantee shall maintain a property management system that, at a minimum, meets the requirements of 2 CFR (d). Because of increasing threats to information technology systems, the grantee is reminded that, under 2 CFR (d)(3) and (4), "[a] control system must be developed to ensure adequate safeguards to prevent loss, damage, or theft of the property" and "[a]dequate maintenance procedures must be developed to keep the property in good condition." This requirement imposes on the grantee a duty to adequately maintain and to insure adequate safeguards against the loss, damage, or theft of information technology equipment and systems purchased with NSF funds. 6. Inventory Requirements. (a) In the event that title to equipment is vested in the Federal Government, such property shall be marked, tagged or segregated in such a manner as to indicate clearly its ownership by the government. In accordance with the requirements of 2 CFR (a), for all NSF-owned equipment having an original acquisition cost of $5,000 or more, the grantee must submit an annual inventory report by NSF grant number of such property to the NSF Property Administrator, Division of Administrative Services (DAS). The report should include all NSF owned equipment purchased or constructed, including land and buildings, under the grant or acquired by screening excess through the General Services Administration (GSA); and include the type of equipment or property, serial number, acquisition price, acquisition date and condition of the equipment. In the event that the grantee is in possession of NSF-owned equipment under multiple grants, the reporting must be specific to each NSF grant number. The report also should include a description of Construction-in-Progress (CIP) and Work-in-Progress (WIP) items and construction costs incurred to date. CIP is defined as real property that is in the process of being manufactured or fabricated but is not yet complete. WIP is defined as equipment that is in the process of being manufactured or fabricated but is not yet complete. CIP and WIP consist of the costs of direct materials, direct labor, direct purchased services, and indirect costs, including general and administrative and overhead costs. Costs coded as such should not be depreciated. The inventory should be submitted electronically to and must be received by DAS no later than August 15 each year. (b) A physical inventory of NSF-owned equipment shall be conducted every two years pursuant to 2 CFR (d)(2). At the end of the grant, the grantee shall report the property to the Property Section for further agency utilization (See AAG Chapter IV.D.5). 7. Competition. The grantee shall not use equipment acquired with Federal funds to provide services to non-federal outside organizations for a fee that is less than private companies charge for equivalent services, unless specifically authorized by Federal statute for as long as the Federal government retains an interest in the equipment in accordance with 2 CFR (c)(3).8 Page 8 8. Right to Transfer Title. (a) (b) In accordance with 2 CFR (e), NSF may identify items of equipment having an acquisition cost of $5,000 or more where NSF reserves the right to transfer the title to the Federal Government or a third party named by the Federal Government at any time during the grant period. In cases where NSF elects to transfer the title, disposition instructions will be issued no later than 120 days after the end date of the NSF-supported project for which it was acquired. 7. Participant Support Costs a. Participant support costs as defined in 2 CFR are direct costs for items such as stipends or subsistence allowances, travel allowances and registration fees paid to or on behalf of participants (but not employees) in connection with NSF-sponsored conferences. In accordance with Article 2, prior approval is required for any additional categories of participant support costs, such as incentives, gifts, souvenirs, t-shirts and/or memorabilia. The request must be submitted via use of NSF s electronic systems and NSF approval of such changes will be by an amendment to the grant signed by the cognizant NSF Grants and Agreements Officer. Grantee organizations must account for participant support costs separately. Indirect costs (F&A) are not allowed on participant support costs (see GPG II.C.2.g(v)). b. Funds provided for participant support may not be used by grantees for other categories of expense without the specific prior written approval of the cognizant NSF Program Officer. Such requests must be submitted electronically via use of NSF s electronic systems. 8. Significant Project Changes Consistent with 2 CFR , the grantee is required to obtain prior written approval from the cognizant NSF Grants and Agreements Officer whenever there are significant changes in the project or its direction as stipulated below. a. Transfer of the Project Effort (Subawards) 1. NSF authorization to transfer a significant part of the research or substantive effort to another organization that has been disclosed in the proposal is not needed unless approval has been specifically withheld in the notice of award. 2. If it becomes necessary to transfer a significant part of the research or effort after a grant has been made, notification of this intent should be submitted via use of NSF s electronic systems and must be electronically signed by an Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR). The request shall include a clear description of the work to be performed and a proposed budget (see AAG Chapter II.B.3 for additional information). NSF approval of such changes will be by an amendment to the grant signed by the cognizant NSF Grants and Agreements Officer.9 Page 9 3. The grantee remains responsible for monitoring of the activities of the subrecipient as necessary to ensure that the subaward is used for authorized purposes, in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the subaward as outlined in 2 CFR This includes maintaining the necessary documentation on all subawards and making it available to NSF upon request. The grantee shall include subaward activities in the annual and final project reports that are submitted to NSF. 4. Consistent with the guidance in 2 CFR , grantees must adhere to the requirements for pass-through entities in establishing and managing subawards and contracts issued under the grant. In addition, grantees shall ensure that the following articles, if applicable, flow down to all subrecipients, or are appropriately addressed in the subaward instrument: Articles 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 41, 42, 43, 45, 46, 47 and 48. If the grantee issues contracts exceeding $2,000 for construction, alteration or repair that are within the scope of the Acts found in 2 CFR 200, Appendix II, Contract Provisions for Non-Federal Entity Contracts Under Federal Awards, the appropriate clauses applicable to construction activities also will be included in applicable contracts. b. Change in Objectives or Scope A proposed change in the phenomenon or phenomena under study or the objectives of the project stated in the proposal or agreed modifications thereto should be communicated via use of NSF s electronic systems. NSF approval of such changes will be by an amendment to the grant signed by the cognizant NSF Grants and Agreements Officer. c. Disengagement or Change of Principal Investigator/Project Director or co-principal Investigator/co-Project Director If a named Principal Investigator (PI)/Project Director (PD) or co-pi/co-pd plans to or becomes aware that he or she will: (1) devote substantially less effort to the work than anticipated in the approved proposal (defined in 2 CFR (c)(3) as a reduction of 25% or more in time devoted to the project); (2) sever his or her connection with the grantee organization; or (3) be disengaged from the project for a continuous period of more than 3 months, or otherwise relinquish active direction of the project, he or she shall advise the appropriate official at the grantee organization, who shall initiate action appropriate to the situation in accordance with the guidelines described in AAG Chapter II.B Procurement Standards Whether or not approval of a procurement is required under Article 8.a., where appropriate, the grantee (including commercial organizations) is responsible for compliance with the procurement standards identified in 2 CFR The grantee also is responsible for ensuring that the provisions contained in Appendix II of 2 CFR 200 are made a part of any contract whose award amount exceeds the simplified acquisition threshold (currently $150,000).10 Page 10 See FAQ of the Frequently Asked Questions for The Office of Management and Budget s Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards at 2 CFR 200 (dated November, 2014) regarding Effective Dates and Grace Period for Procurement. See also FAQ regarding Methods of Procurement - Sole Source for Research. 10. Travel a. Allowability of Travel Expenses 1. Expenses for transportation, lodging, subsistence and related items incurred by project personnel and by outside consultants employed on the project (see GPG Chapter II.C.2.g(iv)) who are in travel status on business related to an NSF-supported project are allowable as prescribed in the governing cost principles. Except as noted in paragraph b. below, the requirements for prior approval specified in 2 CFR are waived. 2. Except as provided in the governing cost principles, the difference between economy airfare and a higher-class airfare is unallowable. A train, bus or other surface carrier may be used in lieu of, or as a supplement to, air travel at the lowest first-class rate by the transportation facility used. If such travel, however, could have been performed by air, the allowance will not normally exceed that for jet economy airfare. b. Travel Support for Dependents of Key Project Personnel Travel support for dependents of key project personnel is allowable only under the following conditions as outlined in 2 CFR 474(c)(2): 1. the individual is a key person who is essential to the project on a full-time basis; 2. the individual s residence away from home and in a foreign country is for a continuous period of six months or more and is essential to the effective performance of the project; and 3. the dependents travel allowance is consistent with the policies of the organization administering the grant. In accordance with Article 2, prior approval is required for travel costs for dependents and must be requested via use of NSF s electronic systems. NSF approval of such changes will be by an amendment to the grant signed by the cognizant NSF Grants and Agreements Officer. c. Use of U.S.-Flag Air Carriers 1. In accordance with the Fly America Act (49 USC 40118), any air transportation to, from, between, or within a country other than the U.S. of persons or property, the expense of which will be assisted by NSF funding, must be performed by or under a code-sharing arrangement with a U.S.-flag air carrier if service provided by such a carrier is available (see Comptroller General Decision B , dated September 25, 1991). Tickets (or documentation for electronic tickets) must identify the U.S. flag air carrier s designator code and flight number. 2. For the purposes of this requirement, U.S.-flag air carrier service is considered available even though:11 Page 11 (a) comparable or a different kind of service can be provided at less cost by a foreign-flag air carrier; (b) or (c) foreign-flag air carrier service is preferred by, or is more convenient for, NSF or traveler; service by a foreign-flag air carrier can be paid for in excess foreign currency. 3. The following rules apply unless their application would result in the first or last leg of travel from or to the U.S. being performed by a foreign-flag air carrier: (a) a U.S.-flag air carrier shall be used to destination or, in the absence of direct or through service, to the farthest interchange point on a usually traveled route. (b) if a U.S.-flag air carrier does not serve an origin or interchange point, a foreign-flag air carrier shall be used only to the nearest interchange point on a usually traveled route to connect with a U.S. flag air carrier. d. Use of Foreign-Flag Air Carriers There are certain circumstances under which use of a foreign-flag air carrier is permissible. These circumstances are outlined below: 1. Airline "Open Skies" Agreements: A foreign flag air carrier may be used if the transportation is provided under an air transportation agreement between the United States and a foreign government, which the Department of Transportation has determined meets the requirements of the Fly America Act. For information on "open skies" agreements in which the United States has entered, please refer to the General Services Administration s (GSA) website at Note on U.S./European Union Open Skies Agreement In 2007, the U.S. entered into an Open Skies Agreement with the European Union ( EU ). This agreement was modified in June The current Agreement gives European Community airlines (airlines of Member States) the right to transport passengers and cargo on flights funded by the U.S. government, when the transportation is between: (1) any two points outside the United States; or (2) a point in the United States and any point outside the United States that the EU airline is authorized to serve under the Open Skies Agreement. In 2011, two significant changes were made to the U.S./EU Open Skies Agreement. First, EU airlines are now granted the right to transport civilian agency-funded passengers who are NOT eligible to travel on GSA Airline City Pair Contract fares (e.g., grantees) between a point in the United States and a point outside the United States even if there is a GSA Airline City Pair Contract fare in effect between the origin and destination points. An individual, however, who is traveling on a route for which there is a City Pair Contract fare in effect, and who is eligible for such a fare (e.g., Federal employee), is required to fly on a U.S. carrier, absent another applicable exception.12 Page 12 Second, under the amended Agreement, EU airlines are now authorized to transport passengers between points in the United States and points outside the EU if the EU airline is authorized to serve the route under the Agreement. This includes flights that originate, arrive, or stop in the EU. Prior to this change, EU airlines were limited to flying passengers between points in the U.S. and points in the EU. 2. Involuntary Rerouting: Travel on a foreign-flag carrier is permitted if a U.S.-flag air carrier involuntarily reroutes the traveler via a foreign-flag air carrier, notwithstanding the availability of alternative U.S.-flag air carrier service. 3. Travel To and From the U.S. on non-european Community Airlines Use of a non-european Community foreign-flag air carrier is permissible if the airport abroad is: (a) the traveler's origin or destination airport, and use of U.S.-flag air carrier service would extend the time in a travel status by at least 24 hours more than travel by a foreign-flag air carrier; or (b) an interchange point, and use of U.S.-flag air carrier service would increase the number of aircraft changes the traveler must make outside of the U.S. by two or more, would require the traveler to wait four hours or more to make connections at that point, or would extend the time in a travel status by at least six hours more than travel by a foreign-flag air carrier. 4. Travel Between Points Outside the U.S. on non-european Community Airlines Use of a non-european Community foreign-flag air carrier is permissible if: (a) travel by a foreign-flag air carrier would eliminate two or more aircraft changes en route; (b) travel by a U.S.-flag air carrier would require a connecting time of four hours or more at an overseas interchange point; or (c) the travel is not part of the trip to or from the U.S., and use of a U.S.-flag air carrier would extend the time in a travel status by at least six hours more than travel by a foreign-flag air carrier. 5. Short Distance Travel. For all short distance travel, regardless of origin and destination, use of a foreign-flag air carrier is permissible if the elapsed travel time on a scheduled flight from origin to destination airport by a foreign-flag air carrier is three hours or less and service by a U.S.-flag air carrier would double the travel time. 11. Rearrangement and Reconversion Costs a. Costs incurred for ordinary and normal rearrangement and alteration of facilities that do not constitute construction (i.e., rearrangements and alterations costs aggregating less than $25,000) to adapt space or utilities within a completed structure to accomplish the objectives of the grant, are allowable and approved, provided: 1. the building has a usable life consistent with project purposes and is architecturally suitable for conversion;13 Page the rearrangements and alterations are essential to the project supported by the grant; and 3. the space involved will be occupied by the project. In situations where the space is rented, in order for the costs of the rearrangement and alteration to be allowed, the grantee must secure a lease for the length of the project. b. The rearrangements and alteration of facilities aggregating $25,000 or over require the prior written approval from NSF via use of NSF s electronic systems. Appendix II of 2 CFR 200 contains provisions that must be included in contracts made by the grantee. 12. Allowable Costs a. The allowability of costs 2 and cost allocation methods for work performed under this grant, up to the amount specified in the grant, shall be determined in accordance with the governing cost principles as specified below and must conform with NSF policies, grant special provisions and grantee internal policies in effect on the date of the grant. b. The cost principles applicable to educational institutions, State, local, and Indian Tribal governments and non-profit organizations (other than hospitals) can be found in 2 CFR 200, Subpart E. c. Separate guidance for hospitals can be found in 45 CFR Part 74, Appendix E, Principles for Determining Costs Applicable to Research and Development Under Grants and Contracts with Hospitals. d. Separate guidance for for-profit organizations can be found in the Federal Acquisition Regulation, Part 31. e. Certain prior approval requirements contained in the governing cost principles have been modified by Article Payments a. Except as noted in AAG Chapter III.C, NSF grantees are required to request payments electronically through the Award Cash Management Service (ACM$). Under ACM$, grantees must provide award level detail at the time of the payment request. Grantees should request payments in amounts necessary to meet their current needs, pursuant to the guidelines contained in 31 CFR Part 205. Unless otherwise specified in the grant, the grantee agrees to comply with all applicable Treasury regulations and National Science Foundation implementing and reporting procedures, which are outlined in AAG Chapter III. b. In accordance with 2 CFR , where appropriate, grantees are required to maintain advances of Federal funds in interest-bearing accounts. Interest amounts up to $500 per year may be retained by the grantee for administrative expenses. Interest amounts over $500 must be remitted annually to: 2 Consistent with 2 CFR , for computing devices, charging as a direct cost is allowable for devices that are essential and allocable, but not solely dedicated, to the performance of the grant.14 Page 14 HHS Program Support Center P.O. Box Atlanta, GA c. The requirement to remit interest annually to the HHS Program Support Center does not apply to grantees subject to the Cash Management Improvement Act (CMIA), Subpart A, Rules Applicable to Federal Assistance Programs Included in a Treasury-State Agreement. 14. Continuing Grant Increments Unless otherwise specified, each successive increment of a continuing grant will be funded at the level specified in the original notice of award without a formal request from the grantee provided an annual project report has been received from the Principal Investigator(s) and accepted by the cognizant NSF Program Officer. Continuing funding is contingent on (1) availability of funds; (2) satisfactory scientific/technical progress; and (3) any special conditions of the grant. 15. Project Reporting Requirements a. Annual Project Reports 1. Submission Requirement. Annual project reports are required for both standard and continuing grants Content of Annual Project Reports. The Research Performance Progress Report (RPPR), as implemented in Research.gov, should be used for preparation of the Annual Project Reports to address progress in all activities of the project, including any activities intended to address the Broader Impacts criterion that are not intrinsic to the research. The grantee shall include subaward activities in annual project reports that are submitted to NSF. 3. Timing of Annual Project Reports. Unless otherwise specified in the grant, annual project reports should be submitted electronically at least 90 days prior to the end of the current budget period to allow adequate time for the cognizant NSF Program Officer to review and approve the report. As reflected in the Project Report System, the report is considered due during the 90 day period. The report becomes overdue the day after the 90 day period ends. It should be noted that the final annual report serves as the project s final report and must be submitted in accordance with paragraph b below. 3 Submission of an "interim" report via Research.gov does not constitute compliance with the annual reporting requirement.15 Page 15 b. Final Project Report Failure to submit timely reports will delay NSF review and processing of pending proposals and processing of additional funding and administrative actions, including, but not limited to, no-cost extensions for all identified PIs/PDs and co- PIs/co-PDs on a given grant. In the case of continuing grants, failure to submit timely reports may delay processing of funding increments. 1. Submission Requirement. Unless otherwise specified in the grant, the final project report should be submitted electronically within 90 days following the end of the grant. As reflected in the Project Report System, the report is considered due during the 90 day period. The report becomes overdue the day after the 90 day period ends. 2. Content of Final Project Report. The Research Performance Progress Report, as implemented in Research.gov, also should be used for preparation of the Final Project Report to address progress in all activities of the project, including any activities intended to address the Broader Impacts criterion that are not intrinsic to the research. The grantee shall include subaward activities in final project reports that are submitted to NSF. 3. Additional Requirements. The grantee also shall provide to the cognizant NSF Program Officer, within 90 days following the end of the grant, any unique reports or other end items specified in the grant (e.g., special cost sharing reports), including any reporting requirements set forth in the applicable program solicitation referenced in the grant as being directly related to either the grant or the administration of the grant. c. Project Outcomes Report for the General Public Within 90 days following the end of the grant, a project outcomes report for the general public must be submitted electronically via Research.gov. This report serves as a brief summary, prepared specifically for the public, of the nature and outcomes of the project. This report will be posted electronically by NSF exactly as it is submitted. For information about the content of the report, see the AAG Chapter II.D Expenditure Reports Article 16 establishes the requirement that grantees must submit final financial disbursements no later than 120 days after the grant end date in the Award Cash Management Service. This overrides the 90 day period identified in the NSF Award & Administration Guide (AAG). The AAG will be updated during the next revision to reflect this change. NSF uses the entries in the Award Cash Management Service (ACM$) to collect the final financial data for awards paid through that system. No additional interim or final financial reporting is required. Grantees must submit final financial disbursements no later than 120 days after the grant end date in ACM$. For instructions regarding final disbursement reporting, see the AAG Chapter III.E.16 Page Information Collection Information collection activities performed under this grant are the responsibility of the grantee, and NSF support of the project does not constitute NSF approval of the survey design, questionnaire content or information collection procedures. The grantee shall not represent to respondents that such information is being collected for or in association with the National Science Foundation or any other Government agency without the specific written approval of such information collection plan or device by the Foundation. This requirement, however, is not intended to preclude mention of NSF support of the project in response to an inquiry or acknowledgment of such support in any publication of this information. 18. Responsible Conduct of Research In accordance with Section 7009 of the America Creating Opportunities to Meaningfully Promote Excellence in Technology, Education, and Science (COMPETES) Act (42 U.S.C. 1862o 1) NSF requires that grantees must have a plan in place to provide appropriate training and oversight in the responsible and ethical conduct of research (RCR) to undergraduates, graduate students, and postdoctoral researchers who will be supported by NSF to conduct research. Training plans are subject to review, upon request. Grantees must designate one or more persons to oversee compliance with the RCR training requirement. Grantees are responsible for verifying that undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral researchers supported by NSF to conduct research have received training in the responsible and ethical conduct of research, in accordance with the plan the grantee has put in place for their organization. Grantees shall ensure that these RCR requirements flow down to all subrecipients, or are otherwise appropriately addressed in the subaward. 19.
