NSF Revises Grant Policy Manual

The National Science Foundation has published a revised version of the NSF Grant Policy Manual (GPM). The revised GPM is effective July 1, 2005 and supersedes all prior versions.

The revision implements important changes to NSF's policies and procedures, as well as enhanced capabilities in FastLane. NSF strongly encourages grantees to review the document, which includes a summary of significant changes.

One change is that the definition of Principal Investigator/Project Director has been expanded to include coverage of co-PI/PD. Another change is that NSF has added language to emphasize the required submission of the final project report—failure to provide reports will delay NSF review and processing of pending proposals for all identified PIs and co-PIs on a given award.
