Due to an expected increase in Grants.gov submissions relating to the
processing of Recovery Act proposals, the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) has authorized agencies to use alternative methods for
proposal submission and acceptance. NSF is able to accept directly its
full complement of proposals, both regular submissions and those
additional proposals anticipated under the Recovery Act, using our
long-established FastLane capabilities for proposal submission and
acceptance. Therefore, in order to assist Grants.gov in the effort to
alleviate system strain and increase system capacity, proposers will now
be required to prepare and submit proposals to NSF through use of the
NSF FastLane system. 

Effective immediately, new funding opportunities issued by NSF will
exclusively require the use of FastLane to prepare and submit proposals.
In addition, NSF plans to revise existing funding opportunity documents
to reflect this change and to remove all active application packages
from Grants.gov APPLY. NSF will continue to post information about
available funding opportunities to Grants.gov FIND.  

Detailed instructions regarding the technical aspects of proposal
preparation and submission via FastLane are available at:
http://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/
<http://www.fastlane.nsf.gov/a1/newstan.htm> .

If you have any questions regarding this change, please contact the
Policy Office on 703.292.8243 or by e-mail to policy at nsf.gov
<mailto:policy at nsf.gov> . 

Best, 

Jean Feldman
