Issue: Due to a gap in employment while the current OVW-funded investigator undertook the hiring process, it was forecasted that grant funding would be left remaining by the end of the grant period in the budget categories of payroll and associated fringe benefits.
Solution: Seek and obtain authorization from the grant funding agency and the county to transfer funds to other needed budget categories in order to use remaining grant funds more optimally.
Result: The remaining grant funds are now forecasted be utilized.
