| Consult the GP-CESU
Mission Statement, Cooperative Agreement (CA), and BLM Technical Representative
(Tech Rep) to confirm that the project is appropriate for the GP-CESU. The Tech
Rep may ask to see a written scope of work (or proposal), budget and timeline
before approval.

1) The
AO will electronically provide you with a working package that includes
boilerplates of all the required documents for your use and action. Documents
include the following:
-
Statement of
Programmatic Involvement (SPI)– completed and signed by BLM collaborator
-
SF
424 – completed by university collaborator
-
SF 424A – completed jointly
-
SF 424B – completed by university collaborator
-
Task Order – included
Form 1511-1 and Narrative – Complete in draft form by both parties
2) The university
collaborator should process any paperwork their internal grants and contracts
office requires.
3) The
university grants and contracts personnel will forward the SF424, 424A, 424B and
any other proposal documentation to the AO.
4) The
BLM collaborator will submit the SPI and draft task order to the AO
electronically (a hard copy to follow). A Purchase Requisition should also
be submitted via the IDEAS network.
5)
Upon review by the AO, the AO will
accomplish an Instrument Selection Determination (ISD) and obtain appropriate
approvals. The AO will finalize the task order and mail it to the university
partner for review and signature. The partner returns it to the State office
for State Director or Field Manager signature. AO signs and distributes the
task order, including a copy to the GP-CESU Administrative Coordinator.
The AO must send a copy
of the task order to the GP-CESU Administrative Coordinator at the host
university.
Once work is completed,
an electronic copy of the final report must be sent to the GP-CESU
Administrative Coordinator. A project abstract or executive summary will
suffice in instances when a written final report is not the end deliverable.
Reports for the GP-CESU
should be mailed to the address below:
