The NIH realizes that there may be problems for organizations in submitting grant applications due to major fires. The usual NIH practice for such circumstances will apply. Electronic and paper applications that are submitted late because of fires should include a cover letter noting the reasons for the delay. It is not necessary to get permission in advance for fire-related delays in grant application submissions. It is expected that the delay will generally not exceed the time period that an applicant organization/institution is closed.
