Good Afternoon -

Has anyone come across a faculty member who wants to forgo budgeted
summer salary. The PI is paid on a 9 month appointment. There is
academic year cost share already associated with this grant. They want
to forgo summer salary in order to use it on other expenses. The problem
being, they are not reducing their effort, but rather working for no
compensation during the summer. Since they are not receiving salary, we
have no way to certify their effort other than have them signing a
certification that they are committing the amount of effort originally
proposed, but this brings into question voluntary cost share issues, but
since there is no salary associated with summer pay, there is no way to
track the associated cost share. Has anyone run into this and how did
you handle?

Thanks,
Nicole
