Applications are required for the designation of a public or private institution of higher education, institute, laboratory, or State or local agency as a Sea Grant college or Sea Grant institution. Applications are also required in order to be awarded a Sea Grant Fellowship, including the Dean John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellowships. Grant monies are available for funding activities that help attain the objectives of the Sea Grant Program. In addition to the SF-424 and other standard grant application requirements, up to three additional forms are required with a grant application. These are the 90-1 Sea Grant Control Form, used to identify the organizations and personnel who would be involved in the grant; the 90-2 Project Summary Form, which collects summary data on projects; and the 90-4 Sea Grant Budget Form, which provides more budget detail than the SF-424A.
US Code:
33 USC 1121 - 1131
Name of Law: Sea Grant Colleges and Marine Science Development
Program changes: Making the 90-2 form easier to use by removing non-required questions, and automating the summation of certain fields in the 90-4 form so the respondent doesn't have to calculate and fill them out, are estimated to save about 600 minutes in reporting burden. Adding one new question to the 90-2 form to meet a NOAA reporting requirement, and requesting semi-quantitative information about project topic areas from a small number of respondents to better characterize those projects (where before we only asked what topic areas applied), are estimated to add about 1300 minutes of reporting burden. The net result is an increase of 2 minutes for the form, or a total of 22 hours.
