<br>
</span>
<div class="heading3">Key Dates</div>
<p class=regulartext><strong>Release
Date:</strong> December 1, 2011 </p>
<div class="heading3">Issued by</div>
<p class=regulartext>National Institutes of Health (<a href="http://www.nih.gov">NIH</a>)</p>
<div class="heading2">Purpose</div>
<p class=regulartext>This Notice informs Public Health Service (PHS) awardee
institutions of revisions to the sample Interinstitutional Assurance formerly
known as the Interinstitutional Agreement.</p>
<div class="heading4">Background</div>
<p class=regulartext>The PHS Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals
(<a href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/olaw/references/phspol.htm">Policy</a>)
requires institutions that receive PHS support for activities involving animals
to have an approved Assurance with the Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare
(OLAW). The Interinstitutional Assurance is used when the awardee institution
has neither an animal care and use program, facilities to house animals, nor an
Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. The awardee institution will
conduct animal activities at an Assured institution (named as a performance
site) that has either a Domestic or Foreign Assurance approved by OLAW. </p>
<div class="heading4">Changes to the Sample Interinstitutional Assurance</div>
<p class=regulartext>OLAW updated the sample Interinstitutional Assurance
document in November 2011. Changes to the document clarify essential
information, list institutional responsibilities, and define required elements.
Institutions that submit Assurances after January 1, 2012 are asked to follow
the format of the revised <a
href="https://grants.nih.gov/grants/olaw/sampledoc/interinstitutional_assurance.htm">sample
Interinstitutional Assurance</a>. For ease of submission, the signed Assurance
may be converted to a PDF file and e-mailed to the OLAW Division of Assurances
at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#cba4a7aabcafa4aa8ba6aaa2a7e5a5a2a3e5aca4bd"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="2b44474a5c4f444a6b464a424705454243054c445d">[email&#160;protected]</span></a> or faxed to
301-915-9465.</p>
<div class="heading4">Application Process</div>
<p class=regulartext>The application process begins when the PHS funding
component makes a determination to award a grant or contract. The funding
component will notify OLAW that an Assurance is required for the pending award.
OLAW will contact the awardee institution to negotiate the applicable
Assurance(s). Institutions should not submit an Assurance unless requested to
do so by OLAW. OLAW will not process unsolicited applications. If the
institution has received notice of award and has not been contacted by OLAW, the
institution may submit an inquiry by e-mail to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#bad5d6dbcdded5dbfad7dbd3d694d4d3d294ddd5cc"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="3c53505d4b58535d7c515d555012525554125b534a">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>. Please include the
grant/contract number and the name, phone number, and e-mail address of the
grants management specialist/contract specialist from the funding component.
OLAW approves Interinstitutional Assurances for the life of the grant, up to
five years. </p>
<p class=regulartext>Institutions are reminded that they may not conduct
PHS-supported activities involving live vertebrate animals until an Assurance
has been approved by OLAW.</p>
