                  TITLE 15--COMMERCE AND FOREIGN TRADE
 
   PART 14--UNIFORM ADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTS FOR GRANTS AND AGREEMENTS WITH INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION, HOSPITALS, OTHER NON-PROFIT, AND COMMERCIAL 
ORGANIZATIONS--Table of Contents
 
                           Subpart A--General
 
Sec. 14.4  Deviations.

    The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) may grant exceptions for 
classes of grants or recipients subject to the requirements of this part 
when exceptions are not prohibited by statute. However, in the interest 
of maximum uniformity, exceptions from the requirements of this part 
shall be permitted only in unusual circumstances. The Assistant 
Secretary may apply more restrictive requirements to a class of 
recipients when approved by OMB. The Assistant Secretary may apply less 
restrictive requirements when awarding small awards, except for those 
requirements which are statutory. Exceptions on a case-by-case basis may 
also be made by the Assistant Secretary. An exception made on a case-by-
case basis will apply to a single award.
