Procedure for Monitoring Grants in the U.S.:	Part I, Line 2:	Schedule I, Part I, Line 2: Each grantee is required to submit a yearly scientific progress report, which is reviewed by NNRI science staff and compared with the milestones submitted with the original grant application. Attention is also given to experiments to be performed in the coming year. Any problems or issues identified by the grantee and/or NNRI staff are resolved to our mutual satisfaction; however, if a consensus cannot be reached or if the apparent progress is not satisfactory in the opinion of NNRI staff, after consultation with members of the FFB/NNRI Scientific Advisory Board, the grant is terminated with a short phase out period. Each grantee is required to submit a yearly financial report detailing grant expenditures according to their NNRI approved grant budget. Science staff review each financial report for adherence to budgeted expenditures in each category. With proper documentation and if determined appropriate, requests for carryover of unexpended funds to the next fiscal year are reviewed and approved on a case-by-case basis.
