<p class="regulartextBold">Introduction</p>
<p class="regulartext">The National Institutes of Health (NIH) announces the
opportunity for investigators and institutions located in Galveston, Texas,
with active NIH grants to request up to a one-year funded extension at the
same funding level as the current final year of the grant and/or one-time
administrative supplements of up to $50,000 in direct costs. This notice applies
to single project research project grants active at the time of the storm,
that remain in Galveston (Activity Codes: R01, R03, R15, R21, R24, R33, R34,
R36, R37, R55, R56 DP1, and DP2). Only grants at NIH-supported institutions
in Galveston, Texas will be eligible for the one-year funded extension. If
a grant has relocated or relocates prior to the award of the additional year
of support, the additional year may be withdrawn. </p>
<p class="regulartext">This opportunity does not
preclude additional requests for administrative supplements on other NIH grant
programs or for these mechanisms. Institutes and Centers will still consider
such requests on a case-by-case basis. </p>
<p class="regulartextBold">Available Options </p>
<p class="regulartext">1. <strong>One-year funded extension</strong> Principal Investigators of the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), Galveston and other NIH supported institutions with active awarded grants that meet the requirements described above are eligible to apply for up to one-year of funded extension at the same funding level as the current final year of the grant. The active grant can have multiple future years still committed; e.g., it need not be in the final year. For those approved for funding, the additional year of support will be added to the end of the current project period as an additional future year commitment. If the grant is currently in the final year of committed support, a funded extension of that year will be awarded. </p>
<p class="regulartext"><u>When to apply:</u> Grantees should first assess the impact
of Ike on a particular project, including time lost and the additional work
necessary to restore the project in order to address the approved aims and
objectives. Since this assessment is an integral part of the request for additional
time and funding, grantees will need to wait until after such an assessment
has been completed before applying. </p>
<p class="regulartext"><u>How to apply:</u> Using the 398 application
kit as applicable, prepare a brief request (not to exceed 5 pages) and budget
for a one-year funded extension. The original document must be submitted either
as paper (i.e. regular mail, UPS, FedEx, etc.) or electronically (i.e. e-mail
with PDF attachment). The original document with the institution&rsquo;s Authorized Organizational Representative (AOR) signature should be sent to the NIH grants management specialist noted in the current Notice of Award (NoA). This information is also available in the eRA Commons.</p>
<p class="regulartext"> A <strong>copy</strong> of the request should be sent either as paper
or electronically (with PDF attachment of the application) to the Office of
Policy for Extramural Research Administration (OPERA) , Attention George Gardner,
at the address below or e-mailed to OPERA <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#4d2324252a253f0d232425632a223b">NIH
Grants Hurricane Recovery</a> mail
box (Subject: Ike supplemental request). </p>
<p class="regulartext">The request should include a budget
and address the following points, as applicable: </p>
<blockquote>
<p class="regulartext">i. Status of vertebrate animal
research availability of research organisms, description of housing facility, status of that facility, timeline for facility re-opening (if applicable), status of IACUC approval of facility and research protocol</p>
<p class="regulartext"> ii. Status of human subjects research availability of subject population, feasibility of achieving recruitment goals, status of IRB approval of project</p>
<p class="regulartext"> iii. Personnel list of Senior/key personnel on project, justification for changes in Senior/key personnel from previous grant period, status/availability of Senior/key personnel </p>
<p class="regulartext">iv. Scope of research if the specific aims are changed from the original proposal, the new aims should be listed and the changes justified. </p>
<p class="regulartext">v. Resources and Environment list any changes from original proposal and discuss impact on proposed research. </p>
<p class="regulartext">vi. Assessment of the impact of Ike on the project
including time lost and the additional work necessary to restore the project
in order to address the project&rsquo;s aims and objectives. </p>
<p class="regulartext">vii. Milestones include specific milestones that could be used for judging progress on the project in the extended project period</p>
<p class="regulartext"> viii. A current estimate of the unobligated balance
for the project. </p>
</blockquote>
<p class="regulartext"><u>Allowable Costs:</u> This opportunity is intended to support
activities that restore lost or disrupted work. This support will neither
duplicate nor overlap with the reimbursements provided by FEMA for loss
of materials or property damage. Funds provided will be adjusted as appropriate
based on any previous supplements provided to support recovery from Hurricane
Ike damage for the project. </p>
<p class="regulartext"><u>Review and Funding Decisions:</u> Applications will
be reviewed administratively by NIH program and grants management staff
of the appropriate Institute or Center (IC) to determine: </p>
<blockquote>
<p class="regulartext">- The project
remains active in Galveston, Texas </p>
<p class="regulartext">- Project team is active and ready to
engage in productive research </p>
<p class="regulartext">- The amount of additional time and funds
necessary to restore the ability to conduct productive research and address
the time lost to productive research due to Ike.</p>
<p class="regulartext"> - Project is not carrying
a large unobligated balance (greater than 25% of the current year&rsquo;s total budget).</p>
<p class="regulartext"> - Project can be completed with the funded extension
without major revision in its aims and objectives </p>
<p class="regulartext">Staff will then make a
funding recommendation to the senior leadership of the relevant IC that
they represent. </p>
<p class="regulartext">Note for those grants where this additional funding will
be provided as an additional future year commitment, a regular progress
report will be required within the normal business process. As with all
future commitments, the actual award will be subject to availability of
funds and satisfactory progress of the project. </p>
</blockquote>
<p class="regulartext">2. <strong>One-time supplements</strong> Principal
Investigators of the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), Galveston
and other NIH supported institutions with existing awarded grants will be
eligible to apply for a one-time administrative supplement of up to $50,000
direct costs and applicable Facilities and Administrative costs. If both
a one-year funded extension and a one-time supplement are approved and awarded,
the amount of the supplement will be deducted from the amount provided for
the additional year of support described above. Applicants requesting supplements
must justify the requests adequately to allow for programmatic review. The
status of the research project, including the status/availability of animals
required for the research and/or human subjects to be included in the project,
personnel available to carry out project, and the existing resources and
environment should be addressed as applicable. </p>
<p class="regulartext"><u>When to apply:</u> Grantees should
first assess the impact of Ike on a particular project, including time lost
and the additional work necessary to restore the project in order to address
the approved aims and objectives. Grantees will need to wait until after
such an assessment has been completed before applying.</p>
<p class="regulartext"> <u>How to apply:</u> Using
the 398 application kit as applicable, provide a brief request (not to exceed
5 pages) and budget describing the immediate needs for one-time research
expenses to facilitate the re-building of the research efforts following
the damage to the research programs incurred in the aftermath of Hurricane
Ike. The original request must be signed by the AOR and submitted, either
as paper (i.e. regular mail, UPS, FedEx, etc.) or electronically (i.e. e-mail
with PDF attachment), to the designated grants management specialist noted
on the current NoA. This information is also available in the eRA Commons. </p>
<p class="regulartext">A <strong>copy</strong> of the request should be sent either as paper
or electronically (with PDF attachment of the application) to the Office of
Policy for Extramural Research Administration (OPERA), Attention George Gardner,
at the address
below or e-mailed to OPERA NIH Grants Hurricane Recovery mail box (Subject:
Ike supplemental request). </p>
<p class="regulartext"><u>Allowable Costs:</u> The requested supplemental funds
are intended primarily to support small pieces of equipment or their repair,
supplies, reagents, animals, etc. Any expenditure used on these items by
NIH funds will not be re-cooped by application to FEMA. Excluded are salaries,
training costs, alterations and renovation, travel, and recurring supplies.
If both a one-year funded extension and a one-time supplement are granted,
the supplemental funds may be subtracted from funds provided for an approved
funded-extension request.</p>
<p class="regulartext"> <u>Review and Funding Decisions:</u> Applications will
be reviewed administratively by NIH program and grants management staff
in the appropriate Institute or Center, who will make recommendations to
the senior leadership of the Institute or Center on the basis of the status
of the research, as reflected in progress toward the specific aims of the
grant, and demonstrated need for the supplement.</p>
