About this file

This document provides an optional budget table template for applicants to the National Clean Investment Fund grant opportunity under the Environmental Protection Agency. The template standardizes the format for applicants to itemize costs by year and category including personnel, fringe benefits, travel, equipment, supplies, contractual obligations, and other direct and indirect costs. Applicants must separate financial assistance costs into three categories: acquisitions of intangible property, subawards, and participant support costs. The template calculates totals by year, category, and overall. Eligible costs include staff salaries, travel, data subscriptions, professional services, and financial assistance for emissions reduction projects. Applicants must specify the share of requested funds for passing through as financial assistance. The associated federal grant opportunity is the National Clean Investment Fund under the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund and Environmental Protection Agency.

Introduction:

This Excel Workbook is an optional template for applicants to fill in and submit as the detailed budget table, which is described in Section 1.4.2 of the Narrative Proposal, for the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund - National Clean Investment Fund competition. This is an optional template, and applicants will not be penalized if they do not use the template. If you do use this template, you may upload the file as an Excel titled per the instructions in the Notice of Funding Opportunity.

Please see the Notice of Funding Opportunity for guidance on how to create this budget table. In particular, refer to Appendix D: Program Budget for detailed guidance.

Instructions:

Below is a description of the steps an applicant should complete to finish the template.

- In column C, add and subtract rows to detail itemized costs (and specific descriptions of costs) in each cost category per the guidance in Appendix D: Program Budget.

- In columns D through J, fill in the cost for the line item per year, including subtotals for each budget category - personnel, fringe benefits, travel, equipment, supplies, contractual, and other direct costs (e.g., subawards, participant support costs, other) as well as indirect costs (note: the template examples only have year 1 values included, yet applicants must fill in costs for every year of the applicant's proposed period of performance). As directed in Appendix D: Program Budget, ensure that costs for financial assistance are aggregated and separated from all other costs for three specific categories: (1) acquisitions of intangible property, (2) subawards, and (3) participant support costs.

- In column L, calculate the total cost for the line item for the entire program, including subtotals for each budget category - personnel, fringe benefits, travel, equipment, supplies, contractual, and other direct costs (e.g., subawards, participant support costs, other) as well as indirect costs.

- At the bottom of the table (row 68 of the template), calculate the share of funds used for financial assistance (both the direct costs of funds passed through for financial assistance as well as associated indirect costs).
