Deadlines and process...
Deadlines
There are no deadlines, as long as the application allows enough time for processing to receive fiscal year funds.
Note:
When available, this section indicates the deadlines for applications to the funding agency which will
be stated in terms of the date(s) or between what dates the application should be received.
When not available, applicants should contact the funding agency for deadline information.
Range of Approval/Disapproval Time
EDA's decision on a firm's petition for certification is usually made within 60 days of its receipt. Decisions on adjustment proposals are typically made within two to three weeks of receipt by EDA. Decisions on TAAC applications or industry wide assistance requests are normally made within two months of receipt of a full and complete application by EDA.
Preapplication Coordination
This program is excluded from coverage under E.O. 12372.
Note:
This section indicates whether any prior coordination or approval is required with governmental or nongovernmental units
prior to the submission of a formal application to the federal funding agency.
Appeals
There is no appeal procedure.
Note:
In some cases, there are no provisions for appeal. Where applicable, this section discusses appeal procedures or allowable rework time for resubmission
of applications to be processed by the funding agency. Appeal procedures vary with individual programs and are either listed in this section or
applicants are referred to appeal procedures documented in the relevant Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).
Renewals
TAAC investments are usually renewed; industry grants usually are not renewed.
Note:
In some instances, renewal procedures may be the same as for the application procedure, e.g., for projects of a non-continuing nature renewals will be treated as new, competing applications; for projects of an ongoing nature, renewals may be given annually.
