Page 103 of the NIH GPS (12/03) references the requirement to explain
greater-than-25% carryover on SNAP renewals.

On page 107 under Changes in Scope you will find the reference:
.............................

Significant rebudgeting, whether or not the particular expenditure(s)
require prior approval. Significant rebudgeting occurs when expenditures
in a single direct cost budget category deviate (increase or decrease)
from the categorical commitment level established for the budget period
by more than 25 percent of the total costs awarded. For example, if the
award budget for total costs is $200,000, any rebudgeting that would
result in an increase or decrease of more than $50,000 in a budget
category is considered "significant rebudgeting." The base used for
determining significant rebudgeting excludes the effects of prior-year
carryover balances but includes competing and noncompeting supplements.

..............................

It should be noted that for modular budgets there is no categorical
budget award thus there can be no significant rebudgeting (at least in
terms of a 25% formula).

Subject: [RESADM-L] Rebudgeting of Funds

Hi All:
Can someone point me to the appropriate link that outlines the policy of

rebudeting per expanded authorities (up to the 25% allowable).  I have
been on the NIH website and cannot locate any reference to the 25%
allowable.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Sincerely,
Patricia
