INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING THE BUDGET FORMS



GENERAL INFORMATION



GO/AR Budget Forms GF-99-1 and GF-99-2 provide ST ScI with a breakdown
of the anticipated costs to analyze HST data. An original and one copy of
these forms, together with Budget Narrative Form GF-99-3, must be submitted
to the ST ScI Grants Administration Office for the Phase II deadline.
Forms GF-99-1 and 99-2 must also be submitted for a revision of an approved
grant budget. For multi-institutional budget requests, one copy of the
three budget forms from each Co-I institution must be attached to the
Principal Investigator's (PI's) budget. The PI will submit all budgets for
an HST program to ST ScI as one package. In addition, please attach a copy
of the institution's current Federal Indirect Cost Negotiation Agreement
that supports the rate used in the budget.

Electronic budget submission will be available in April 2000.


INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING FORM GF-99-1


Please read the attached budget guidelines before completing this
form. Information concerning the allowability of costs may be found in the
Call For Proposals and in the ST ScI General Grant Provisions. A separate
page should be attached if additional space is required to list all of the
costs for any item on the forms. Additional information or justifications
of specific items should be provided on the Budget Narrative Form (GF-99-
3).


Item 1-8: Self-explanatory, with two exceptions. The Institutional
I.D. Number in Item #4 is the number assigned to the
proposal by the Investigator's Institution (if applicable).
Please complete Item #7 if this is a continuation of a
previously funded GO/AR Program.

Item 9(A): List the salaries and wages for the personnel associated
with the Program. Section 9(A)-1 should list the senior
personnel who will be working on the project and provide a
breakdown of their salaries and wages for up to a twelve-
month period. Section 9(A)-2 should list the costs for the
Other Personnel associated with the Program.

Fill in the columns entitled "Monthly or Hourly Rate,"
"Number of Months/Hours," and "Percent of Time" with the
appropriate information. Insert the fringe benefits,
overhead, and/or IDC/G&A rates applicable to 9(A)-1 and -2,
provided such costs are not included in the organization's
indirect cost pool.

Item 9(B): Please provide the total dollar amount of fringe benefits.


Item 9(C): List the costs for domestic and foreign travel. Itemize
travel by destination and the cost of each trip. All

Item 9(F): Provide an estimate of the amount of publishing costs
based on number of pages times cost per page.

Item 9(G): List all items of equipment (any item costing $5,000 or

the Call For Proposals and General Grant Provisions for
more information on the ST ScI policy concerning such
purchases.

Item 9(H): List each item and provide a justification. Please use a
separate page if necessary.

Item 9(I): Funds to be awarded directly by ST ScI to Co-Investigators
(Co-Is) should be listed in this category. Budget Forms
(GF-99-1 - GF-99-3) for each Co-I should be attached to the
PI's budget.

Item 9(J): Indirect costs based on a rate established with a Federal
Agency are allowable. Please attach a copy of your
institution's current Federal Indirect Cost Negotiation
Agreement that supports the rate used in the budget.
Institutions that do not have an established rate may
charge an amount up to 10% of total direct costs not to
exceed $5,000. The indirect cost rate should not be
applied to item 9(H) since ST ScI will award those funds
directly to each Co-I Institution. Please see the Call For
Proposals, the General Grant Provisions for more
information on the ST ScI policies concerning indirect
costs.

Item 10: Total of Items 9(A) through 9(J). Please note that the
total of each column should agree.

Item 11: With the exception of preparatory funding, ST ScI grant
funds will not be awarded until observational data are
obtained for a project. Proposers may request up to 25% of
the total project costs, if necessary, for preparatory
activities prior to the receipt of observational data. For
Archival Researcher Programs, funding will be provided
shortly after funds are allocated to each Program.

Item 12: Indicate whether any of the costs of the project will be
provided by a source other than ST ScI.
