§ 57.507 - For what purposes may grant funds be spent?

(a) A grantee shall only spend funds it receives under this subpart for traineeships according to § 57.508, the authorizing legislation, terms and conditions of the grant award, applicable cost principles specified in subpart Q of 45 CFR part 74, and these regulations.

(b) A grantee may not spend grant funds for sectarian instruction or for any religious purpose.

(c) Any balance of federally obligated grant funds remaining unobligated by the grantee at the end of the budget period may be carried forward provided specific approval is granted by the Secretary. If at any time during a budget period it becomes apparent to the Secretary that the amount of Federal funds awarded and made available to the grantee for that period, including any unobligated balance carried forward from prior periods, exceeds the grantee's need for that period, the Secretary may adjust the amounts awarded by withdrawing the excess. A budget period is an interval of time (usually 12 months) into which the project period is divided for funding and reporting purposes.
