B. NOTICE OF AWARD

The LITC Program Office will issue an NOA to each applicant selected to receive funding for the grant year. It will contain the information required by 2 CFR § 200.211. If Congress has not passed final appropriations legislation and the federal government is operating under a Continuing Resolution at the start of the grant year, the initial NOA may be for less than the full amount of the anticipated award. The LITC Program Office may then issue subsequent NOAs, each providing an additional disbursement of funds.

The NOA will provide the amount of funding awarded to the grant recipient, whether the full or partial grant year amount, the grant period, and the terms and conditions of the award. In addition, the NOA incorporates by reference the requirements specified in this publication and lists any additional conditions of the award, where applicable.

All funding will be based on the availability of annually appropriated funds. If more funds become available during the grant year, the LITC Program Office may award additional funds to well-performing clinics not receiving maximum funding. Receipt of additional funding will require an amended budget and issuance of a revised NOA. The total award amount may not exceed the statutory cap unless otherwise legislated by Congress. Requests for additional funds must be made in writing and timely submitted with the interim progress report to be considered. All grant funds will be obligated no later than September 30 of each grant year.
