Notice No. 133
February 27, 2013
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO PRESIDENTS OF UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES AND HEADS OF OTH
ER NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION AWARDEE ORGANIZATIONS
Subject: Impact of FY 2013 Sequestration Order on NSF Awards
As you may know, since passage of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012,
the President has been working with Congress to reach agreement on a balance
d deficit reduction plan. If an agreement is not reached by the end of this
month, the President will be required to issue an order on March 1, 2013 tha
t will implement across-the-board spending cuts known as sequestration. As a
result of this expected sequestration order, the Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 appr
opriations of the National Science Foundation (NSF) will be reduced by 5 per
cent.
We intend to make the necessary FY 2013 reductions with as little disruption
as possible to established commitments, and are using the following set of
core principles to guide our sequestration planning activities:
Protect commitments to NSF's core mission and maintain existing awards;
Protect the NSF workforce; and
Protect STEM human capital development programs.
By adhering to these core principles and the government-wide guidance issued
by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Memorandum 13-03, Planning fo
r Uncertainty with Respect to Fiscal Year 2013 Budgetary Resources, we expec
t to be able to accommodate the sequestration reductions in ways that minimi
ze, to the extent possible, the impact on our mission, both short- and long-
term.
Because the sequestration order takes effect at mid-year, its impact is some
what greater than might otherwise be the case. At NSF, the major impact of s
equestration will be seen in reductions to the number of new research grants
and cooperative agreements awarded in FY 2013. We anticipate that the total
number of new research grants will be reduced by approximately 1,000.
In keeping with the first core principle listed above, and to assure continu
ity and minimize disruption of scientific research, all continuing grant inc
rements in FY 2013 will be awarded, as scheduled, and there will be no impac
t on existing NSF standard grants. The same intent applies to annual increme
nts for cooperative agreements, though overall funding constraints may requi
re reductions to certain major investments. These will be handled on a case-
by-case basis.
It is also important to advise you that the Foundation is currently operatin
g under a Continuing Resolution (CR) that will expire on March 27, 2013. Onc
e NSF has appropriations in place beyond March 27th, we will revise this not
ice as necessary.
