Steve,

The University of Montana has a policy that covers sick and annual leave
for grant-funded employees.  Basically, we developed a sick and annual
leave assessment which is included in the fringe benefits charged against
all grants.  When grant-funded employees take sick or annual leave, the
salary for the leave is charged to the pool, and not to the grant.  Sick
and annual leave pay-offs for grant-funded employees are also done from the
pool.  I'll fax you the policy.
