    (a) It is NASA policy to provide maximum possible continuity in 

funding grant-supported research and educational activities, therefore, 

grants may be extended for additional periods of time when necessary to 

complete work that was part of the original award. NASA generally only 

approves such extensions within funds already made available. Any 

extension that would require additional funding must be supported by a 

proposal submitted at least three months in advance of the expiration 

date of the grant.

    (b) In accordance with Sec. 1260.125(e)(2), Recipients may extend 

the expiration date of a grant if additional time beyond the established 

expiration date is required to assure adequate completion of the 

original scope of work within the funds already made available. For this 

purpose, the recipient may make a one-time no-cost extension, not to 

exceed 12 months, prior to the established expiration date. Written 

notification of such an extension, with the supporting reasons, must be 

received by the NASA Grant Officer at least ten days prior to the 

expiration of the award. A copy of the extension must also be forwarded 

to cognizant Office of Naval Research office. NASA reserves the right to 

disapprove the extension if the requirements set forth at Sec. 

1260.125(e)(2) are not met.

    (c) Requests for approval for all other no-cost extensions must be 

submitted in writing to the NASA Grant Officer. Copies are to be 

forwarded to the cognizant Office of Naval Research office.
