Jesse,

I think this verbiage from NIGMS is on point:

“Salary may be charged directly to a project for services rendered to the project by individuals while they are on sabbatical leave, provided the salary is proportional to the service rendered and is paid according to established organizational policies applicable to all employees regardless of the source of funds. Sabbatical leave paid by an individual's employer, in combination with other compensation (e.g., partial salary from an NIH grant), may not exceed 100 percent of that individual's regular salary from his or her organization.”

I am not aware of a separate notification requirement since work performed and paid for while one is on sabbatical is specifically allowable.

All - 

Is there a requirement that a university inform NIH if the PI will be on sabbatical leave?  

I don't see this requirement in the NIGMS -  https://grants.nih.gov/grants/policy/nihgps/html5/section_7/7.9_allowability_of_costs_activities.htm 

But is it perhaps listed elsewhere?  

Sabbatical leave according to my university's policy is supposed to be devoted to research, which is what the PI did, and so she charged her effort accordingly.  Is there anything wrong with that?  

Thanks in advance for folks' help and advice,

Jesse
