The Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly called the Uniform Guidance) is a government-wide framework for grants management and an authoritative set of rules and requirements for federal awards. The National Policy, Training and Compliance Division (NPTCD) in EPA’s Office of Grants and Debarment has provided a summary of major changes to 2 CFR Part 200, which is the basis for the Uniform Guidance. See the attachment for details.

Is this a subtle way to remind you that the Office of Management and Budget will be hosting a listening session on changes to the Uniform Guidance on September 30? You bet it is! 😊
