Federal/State Partnership
  • Federal legislative mandate.
  • Federal funds are provided and matched by
    non-federal funding.
  • USDAs relationship exists with the states
    individually and collectively (and with the
    extension, research and higher education
    functions).

46
Federal/State Partnership, contd.
  • Shared goals are developed that lead to enhanced
    collaborations (on-going and variable).
  • Process of accountability (adds value to the
    collective process and bridge outcomes)
  • Decentralized System
  • CSREES is the Federal assistance agency.
  • Decentralized system of management.

47
Federal/State Partnership, contd.
  • Broad-based benefits to national constituency.
  • Federal agencys strength is enhanced in
    responding to National priorities.

    support.
  • Management oversight for Federal funds rests with
    the Federal agency.

48
Federal/State Partnership, contd.
  • Base of support is from the participating
    institutions (Federal agency provides limited
    resources, but resources are integral to the
    overall success of programs).
  • A diverse funding portfolio is available
    (formula, competitive, special and
    administrative).

supply and food safety through improved science
based detection surveillance, prevention, and
education.
53
Goal 3 Through research and education on
nutrition and development of more nutritious
foods, enable people to make health promoting
choices.
54
Goal 4 Enhance the quality of the environment

soil, water, air, and biotic resources.
55
Goal 5 Empower people and communities, through
research-based information and education, to
address economic and social challenges facing our
youth, families, and communities.
56
  • The great thing in this world is not so much
    where we are, but in which direction we are
    moving
  • If a man measures life by what others do for
    him, he is going to be disappointed but if he
    measures life by what he does for others, there
    is no time for despair

Cooperative State Research, Education, and
Extension Service Award ProcessStep 1 Step
2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5
  • STEP 1 When funds are made available to the
    Cooperative State Research, Education, and
    Extension Service (CSREES) for a competitive
    awards program, the Office of Extramural Programs
    (OEP) Policy and Program Liaison Staff and the
    appropriate National Program Leader (NPL) work
    together to develop a request for applications
    (RFA). When necessary, the RFA is reviewed for
    legal sufficiency by the Office of the General
    Counsel. Once completed, the RFA is posted to the
    CSREES home page (http//www.reeusda.gov). If
    all potential applicants are not known, the RFA
    is published in the Federal Register. If the
    applicant pool is known, postcards are sent out
    announcing the funding opportunity using mailing
    lists maintained by the CSREES Proposal Services
    Unit (PSU).
  • For a noncompetitive budget line item
    earmarked by Congress or an agency discretionary
    award, the responsible NPL sends a letter to the
    eligible party requesting a proposal.
  • STEP 2 PSU receives and processes all proposals
    submitted to CSREES. If a proposal is received
    by the agency in accordance with the deadline
    established for the program, the proposal will be
    accepted and processed. Please note that PSU
    does NOT have the authority to extend any
    deadlines. Proposals received after the
    established deadline will be handled on a
    case-by-case basis. Each proposal is assigned a
    program code, and pertinent information from the
    proposal is entered in the agency's computer data
    base. This provides the necessary information to
    track a proposal in the review process and to
    generate informational reports and statistics.
    PSU then forwards the proposal to the NPL to
    conduct the programmatic review process.
  • STEP 3 Proposals submitted to a CSREES
    competitive program will be evaluated by a review
    panel, ad hoc reviewers, or a combination of
    panel and ad hoc reviewers. Upon completion of
    the review of the proposals, the appropriate
    program staff determines the proposals to be
    recommended for award subject to available
    funding using the panels ranking of proposals.
    Proposals submitted to a noncompetitive program
    also undergo a review which may include in-house
    reviewers, a review panel, and/or ad hoc
    reviewers, as deemed necessary by the NPL.
  • When the programmatic review is complete, the
    proposals recommended for awards are forwarded to
    the OEP Awards Management Branch (AMB) for
    administrative review and execution of awards.
  • STEP 4 AMB is responsible for reviewing each
    recommended award to ensure it meets legal and
    regulatory requirements. The budget is examined
    to assure that all proposed costs are allowable,
    allocable, and reasonable. AMB makes these
    determinations based on review of the proposal,
    the budget justification, information provided by
    the programmatic contact, and when necessary
    additional information from the project director
    (PD), or the Authorized Organizational
    Representative (AOR). Upon completion of the
    administrative review, AMB prepares an award
    package, signs the award, and mails out the award
    package.
  • STEP 5 When an award is dispatched, a copy of
    the award package is provided to the OEP Funds
    Management Branch (FMB). FMB establishes an
    account
  • (if one does not already exist) with the
    DHHS-Payment Management System (DHHS-PMS) to make
    funds available electronically. In some
    instances, however, funds are provided via
    Treasury Check or Vendor Express through the USDA
    National Finance Center. With DHHS-PMS, the
    recipient receives a letter of authorization
    stating that funds are available. FMB also
    manages Forms SF-272, Federal Cash Transactions
