TO ALL RMP COORDINATORS AND GRANTEE OFFICIALS

Pursuant to the last paragraph of my recent telegram to you in which
I indicated that our grants management staff would be contacting you
regarding the details of the phase-out of the program and would be
providing all assistance possible, and in response to inquiries from
both Coordinators and grantee officials and the National Steering
Committee of RMP Coordinators,.I am enclosing for your use several
copies of the document, "Guidelines and Information for Assisting
RMPs in Phasing out RMPS Support."

This document reflects selected, current policies and related informa-
tion on topics about which you may have had questions and requested
technical assistance from our staff since the phase-out of RMPS support
was announced.. These inquiries concerned grant-related income, indirect
costs, property accountability, etc.

All prior policy materials, including NIDS, RMPS policy statements,
Guidelines and appropriate correspondence should be retained. These
will provide you with a complete set of policies for the program and,
if necessary, help you to document the policies in effect at the time
past expenditures were incurred.

Pleas: be assured that we will make every effort to provide answers to
those questions which are not covered by the material contained in the
enclosed document.

Sincerely yours,

   

Harold Margulies,
Director
