Authorization for charges to these funds must be pre-approved by the individual accountable for the budget to be charged.</li>

   <li style="margin-bottom:15px;">'''Disposition of Equipment After Termination of the Grant Period'''<br /><br />After a grant has ended, equipment purchased by the grant becomes part of the general CON pool unless it is actively being used by the PI, PD or their designee for a CON related purpose or unless negotiated otherwise with the CON Director, Administration & Operations.  Once placed into the general pool, the PI/PD will have priority for subsequent use of that equipment for six months.</li>
