Sec. 3402.21  Confidential aspects of applications and awards.

    When an application results in a grant, the application and 
supporting information become part of the record of CSREES transactions, 
and available to the public upon specific request. Information that the 
Secretary determines to be of a confidential, privileged, or proprietary 
nature will be held in confidence to the extent permitted by law. 
Therefore, any information that the applicant wishes to have considered 
as confidential, privileged, or proprietary should be clearly marked 
within the application. The original copy of an application that does 
not result in a grant will be retained by the Agency for a period of one 
year. Other copies will be destroyed. Such an application will be 
released only with the consent of the applicant or to the extent 
required by law. An application may be withdrawn at any time prior to 
the final action thereon.
