Notice Number: NOT-OD-06-014

Release Date: December 1, 2005

National Institutes of Health (NIH), (http://www.nih.gov)

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) continues to operate on a continuing resolution (CR) that currently extends through December 17, 2005 . The CR applies the terms of the FY 2005 appropriations for the period covered by the CR. Until the final FY 2006 appropriation is enacted, NIH will be issuing non-competing research grant awards at a level below that indicated on the most recent Notice of Award (generally up to 80% of the previously committed level). NIH will consider upward adjustments to these levels after the final appropriation is enacted, but expects institutions to monitor their expenditures carefully during this period.

Questions regarding adjustments applied on individual grant awards may be directed to the Grants Management Specialist identified on the Notice of Award.
