OMB Circular A-110, ``Uniform Administrative Requirements for Grants and Agreements With Institutions of Higher Education, Hospitals, and Other Non-Profit Organizations''

This notice finalizes the revision to OMB Circular A-110, required by a provision of OMB's appropriation for fiscal year (FY) 1999, contained in Public Law 105-277. The provision directs OMB to amend Section __.36, Intangible property, of the Circular ``to require Federal awarding agencies to ensure that all data produced under an award will be made available to the public through the procedures established under the Freedom of Information Act'' (FOIA). Pursuant to the direction of the provision contained in Public Law 105-277, OMB published a Notice of Proposed Revision on February 4, 1999 (64 FR 5684), and a request for comments on clarifying changes to the proposed revision on August 11, 1999 (64 FR 43786). We received over 9,000 comments on the proposed revision and over 3,000 comments on the clarifying changes. After a review of the comments on the clarifying changes, as well as the comments on the proposed revision, OMB is issuing this final revision to the Circular, as required by the provision contained in Public Law 105-277.
