Delays in Grant Application Submission Due to Hurricane Ivan
Notice Number:NOT-OD-04-068
Key Dates Release Date: September 16, 2004
Issued by National Institutes of Health (NIH), (http://www.nih.gov/)
Hurricane Ivan has caused widespread damage to the Gulf Coast area.
The NIH realizes that this may lead to problems for
investigators who are planning on submitting grant applications.
Applications that are submitted late because of Hurricane Ivan
should include a cover letter noting the reasons for the delay. It is
not necessary to get permission in advance for hurricane-related delays
in grant application submissions. It is expected that the delay will
generally not exceed the time period that an institution is closed.
