Abstract
This final rule removes the informal grant appeals procedure for indirect cost rates and other cost issues. The regional HHS Divisions of Cost Allocation have been reorganized into a new Program Support Center and no longer report to the Regional Directors, making the process obsolete. The Department also sees little value in this informal appeals process because it frequently lengthens the time required for appeals. Deletion of this rule will reduce internal management regulations as required by Executive Order 12861. (45 CFR part 75)
