  1. Purpose. This Direction contains instructions and forms to assist Consultation Project Managers and Regional staff in preparing and reviewing the FY 2002 21(d) Consultation Cooperative Agreement application. See Appendix A for a checklist of the required components of the agreement application package.

  2. Scope. This Direction applies OSHA-wide. It applies to all states operating Cooperative Agreements under Section 21(d) of the OSH Act.

  3. Expiration Date. This Direction expires on December 31, 2001.

  4. Action Information

    1. Responsible Office. Directorate of Federal State Operations, Office of Cooperative Programs.

    2. Action Offices.

      1. National Office.

        • The Division of Grants Management is responsible for reviewing financial documents and awarding monies.

        • The Division of Consultation Programs must review all components of the Cooperative Agreement application as detailed in this Direction.

      2. Regional Offices. Regional Offices are required to provide technical assistance to the Consultation Projects and are required to follow the directions detailed in this Direction.

      3. States. States operating Cooperative Agreements under Section 21(d) of the OSH Act are required to follow the directions detailed in this Direction.

  5. Federal Program Change. This Direction does not require a Federal Program Change for State Plans.

  6. Major Changes.

    1. The Consultation Annual Project Plan (CAPP) has been streamlined from previous years. It now includes only an organizational chart; staffing chart; a description of any changes in the Consultation Project's status; a detailed operational description identifying the year's strategies, activities, and their intended outcome; a projected visits chart; a description of its strategy and targets for promoting its recognition and exemption program; and a detailed description of changes to its Internal Quality Assurance program. If the Consultation Project is in a State plan State, the CAPP must also include a copy of the State's Annual Performance Plan.

    2. The Projected Activities chart is revised to exclude "interventions" and the chart is renamed Projected Visits.

    3. The Cooperative Agreement (Form OSHA-110) is attached to this Direction. Office of Management Budget (OMB) financial documents are now available online. The Application for Federal Assistance (SF-424/SF-424A) is available on the OMB website, accessible at http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/grants/index.html#forms.

    4. We have moved the Combined Assurances, Certifications, Conditions, and Restrictions to the Cooperative Agreement for OSHA Consultation. In addition, we have slightly modified the wording of Assurance and Certification 6.(i) on limited English proficiency.

    5. In the past, review of cooperative agreement applications has been done separately by Regional and National personnel. Beginning this year we will conduct simultaneous review of the applications. Final approval letters will be sent by September 20 from the National Office.

    6. States are now required to ensure basic computer literacy of the Consultation Project Manager and consultants. For the purposes of this requirement, "basic computer literacy" includes the following: satisfactorily operate Microsoft Windows, E-mail, a Windows based word processor (Word Perfect or Microsoft Word), a Windows based Internet engine (Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator), Microsoft PowerPoint (if the individual conducts training), and the OSHA Consultation Standalone application if the state uses this application.

  7. Funding Levels. All amounts entered in the Cooperative Agreement (OSHA Form 110), the Application for Federal Assistance (SF 424), and the related worksheet must be based on the FY 2001 authorized award levels. See Appendix G for FY 2002 Funding Levels.

  8. Consultation Project Manager's Responsibilities. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circulars A-102 and A-110 require that Cooperative Agreement awards be made at least 10 days prior to the beginning of the Cooperative Agreement period. The Consultation Project Manager is responsible for completing the Consultation Agreement Application package and submitting it to the National Office and Regional Administrator by August 3, 2001. Two original signature agreement packages must be sent to the National Office and a copy of the package must be sent to the Regional Administrator. The National Office copies should be forwarded to the attention of:

    Arlene Williams
    U.S. Department of Labor
    Occupational Safety and Health Administration
    200 Constitution Avenue NW
    Room N-3419
    Washington, DC 20210

    The Consultation Project Manager must ensure that the completed Cooperative Agreement application package includes all of the following documents outline below. See Appendix A for a Cooperative Agreement application checklist.

    1. Consultation Annual Project Plan (CAPP). The CAPP describes in detail how a Consultation Project's activities will support either the Federal or State annual performance plan in the coming program year. See Appendix B for a checklist of required components.

      1. All activities outlined in the CAPP must fall within the annual performance goals identified in the Federal or State Strategic Plan and must be negotiated with the Regional Administrator or his/her representative. If the Consultation Project is in a State plan State, the CAPP must also include a copy of the State's Annual Performance Plan.

      2. The CAPP must include an organizational chart; staffing chart; a description of any changes in the Consultation Project's status; a detailed operational description identifying the year's strategies, activities, and their intended outcome; a projected visits chart; a description of its strategy and targets for promoting its recognition and exemption program; and a detailed description of changes to its Internal Quality Assurance program.

      3. The Consultation Project Manager should send a draft CAPP to the Region to facilitate a preliminary discussion, which should take place in the third quarter of each year. Further discussion or negotiation of the content of the CAPP must take place in time to meet the deadline for submission of the complete application package.

    2. Financial Documents. The Cooperative Agreement (Form OSHA-110) and the Application for Federal Assistance (SF-424 and SF-424A) must be prepared using the FY 2001 base funding level. See Appendix G for FY 2002 Funding Levels. Any increase for FY 2002 funding for the program will be awarded through the amendment process.

      Each Project must submit an original and one copy of the Cooperative Agreement application package with original signatures on each copy of the Cooperative Agreement and the Application for Federal Financial Assistance. Accuracy of the financial documents is critical to the timely award of the Cooperative Agreement. Applications containing significant deficiencies will not be approved. Any application which is not in substantial accord with the instructions will be returned to the recipient for modifications.

      1. Administrative Cap. OSHA will continue the current 25 percent ceiling limitation on administrative costs. This limitation requires that no more than 25 percent of the 90 percent federal/10 percent recipient costs (including 100 percent federal monies) may be budgeted for administrative costs.

      2. Salary Target. Each project must devote a minimum of 50 percent of its 90 percent federal/10 percent recipient funds (including 100 percent federal monies) to consultant salaries and fringe benefits. Projects unable to meet this target must provide an explanation of why they failed to meet their targeted goals.

      3. Computer Purchases. Due to the rapidly changing industry standards, it is difficult to provide up-to-date specifications here. Consultation Project Managers may contact the Directorate of Information Technology, Office of Management Data Systems (OMDS) sixty or more days in advance of the purchase of new computer equipment for the latest specifications.

      4. Minimum Staffing. At least four professional FTEs -- two full-time safety specialists and two full-time industrial hygienists or their equivalents -- must be included in each project's personnel plan. All of the Project's consultants and safety personnel must be employed at least 50% of their time in the Consultation Program and must spend at least 50% of their time engaged in consultation activity. Projects needing to deviate from this minimum must seek approval from the National Office.

      5. OSHA Restrictions and Conditions. The State official with signature authority must sign the certifications, assurances, lobbying restrictions, and OSHA restrictions and conditions.

  9. Regional Administrator's Responsibilities. The Regional Administrator is responsible for reviewing the Cooperative Agreement application concurrently with the National Office. After review is complete, the Regional Administrator must transmit a memorandumcontaining an assessment of the Cooperative Agreement application to the National Office. The memorandum must address, at a minimum, an evaluation of all of the required components outlined in Paragraph VIII above.

  10. National Office Responsibilities. The National Office is responsible for reviewing and approving the Cooperative Agreement application, and verifying that the application meets all required financial, operational and policy requirements.

    1. Directorate of Federal-State Operations. Consultation staff are responsible for conducting concurrent reviews of Consultation Agreement applications with Regional Offices and for completing the CAPP Checklist for each applicant. Consultation staff are responsible for contacting their Regional Office counterparts no later than 12 business days after the initial due date to discuss the Cooperative Agreement packages and identify any issues that need corrected. Consultation staff are responsible for contacting their Regional Office counterparts no later than 20 business days after the initial due dates to resolve and consolidate any issues which needed to be addressed.

    2. Directorate of Administrative Programs. Grants Management staff are responsible for conducting concurrent reviews of Consultation Agreement applications with Regional Offices and for reviewing financial documents for accuracy, posting funding award levels on the Payment Management System, and transmitting the award letters for each recipient.

      1. Identifying any safety and health hazards in their workplaces.

      2. Controlling or eliminating these hazards successfully.

      3. Establishing or improving a workplace safety and health program.

      4. Understanding all requirements of applicable Federal (or State) law and implementing regulations.

  4. REIMBURSEMENT.

    The Assistant Secretary will reimburse the State one hundred percent (100%) of the allowable costs of all OSHA required or approved training and out-of-state travel. All other allowable training costs, and related travel and per diem, will be reimbursed at ninety percent (90%). All such training, travel and per diem must be directly related to the activity performed under this agreement.

  5. ALLOCATION OF COSTS.

    In order to ensure uniformity and comparability among agreement submissions, Consultation and Administration costs shall be determined and set forth as follows:

    1. Consultation. Consultation costs consist of all direct costs associated with the immediate delivery of consultative services to employers and employees. Costs include but are not limited to: the salaries and fringe benefits of consultation staff engaged in promotion, scheduling, visit preparation, hazard identification, program assistance, training and education, offsite assistance, report preparation, correction verification and similar authorized consultative activities; and related materials, supplies, equipment and staff training. They also include the consultation portion of total ADP costs. (ADP costs should be distributed between consultation and administration in the proportion to which ADP services support each function.) Consultation staff include safety consultants, health consultants, consultant trainees and consultant trainers who meet the minimum qualifications defined in 29 CFR 1908.8(b). Also included are costs of immediate first-level consultant supervisors, except those costs associated with accompanied visit activity.

      Additionally, costs of direct clerical support to consultants and first-level consultant supervisors are charged to Consultation.

      1. Personnel costs shall include the salaries of positions identified in Part A: Consultation as safety consultant (S), safety consultant trainee (TS), safety supervisor (S/S), industrial hygiene consultant (H), industrial hygiene consultant trainee (TH), industrial hygiene supervisor (H/S) and direct clerical support (SEC) to these positions. For consultants and first-level consultant supervisors who also serve in a managerial capacity for the project, salary costs shall be distributed between Administration and Consultation in proportion to the percent of time spent in performing (1) program management and (2) consultant and/or (3) consultant supervisory activities. Salaries reflecting (a) consultant time should be listed separately from salaries reflecting (b) time providing first-level supervision to consultants and salaries of clerical staff who provide direct support to consultants and consultant supervisors.

      2. Fringe Benefits shall include the costs of benefits for personnel identified in Part A: Consultation as safety consultant (S), safety consultant trainee (TS), safety supervisor (S/S), industrial hygiene consultant (H), industrial hygiene consultant trainee (TH), industrial hygiene supervisor (H/S) and direct clerical support (SEC) to these positions. Costs include payments for retirement, social security, workers' compensation, life insurance, medical insurance, etc. Include the cost formula for each fringe benefit. For consultants and first-level consultant supervisors who also serve in a managerial capacity for the project, fringe benefit costs shall be distributed between Administration and Consultation in proportion to the percent of time spent in performing (1) program management and (2) consultant and/or (3) consultant supervisory activities. Fringe benefits reflecting (a) consultant time should be listed separately from fringe benefits reflecting (b) time providing first-level supervision to consultants and fringe benefits of clerical staff who provide direct support to consultants and consultant supervisors.

      3. Travel shall include the costs of authorized travel for personnel identified in Part A: Consultation as safety consultant (S), safety consultant trainee (TS), safety supervisor (S/S), industrial hygiene consultant (H), industrial hygiene consultant trainee (TH) and industrial hygiene supervisor (H/S). Costs shall include travel required to conduct promotional visits, onsite consultation visits and offsite assistance. Travel to attend professional development/training courses (e.g., OTI) and regional and national consultation meetings, except that costs of travel for all participants to the Annual Consultation Conference, must be charged to administration. Intra-agency travel, such as that related to flexi-place programs, must have prior approval from the Regional Administrator. Appropriate supporting details for out-of-state travel (per diem, airfare, registration fees, miscellaneous, etc.) must be reported in the Annual Training Plan. Deviations from this plan involving out-of-state travel to courses and/or locations other than those proposed must be approved in writing by the Regional Administrator prior to the actual travel. Travel for the purpose of performing accompanied visits shall be charged to Administration.

        Attendance at professional development conferences such as AIHA, ASSE, and NSC is not considered OSHA-required training and therefore may not be funded with 100% federal funds. A Project Manager may use cooperative agreement funds to provide an opportunity for each professional safety or health employee to attend a professional development conference of three to five days' duration generally once every two years. However, the percentage of cooperative agreement funds used to pay for the individual's attendance at such a conference may not exceed the percentage of time for which that employee is dedicated to the cooperative agreement. For example, if a safety professional is dedicated at 0.5 FTE, then no more than 50% of the cost of attending the conference may be charged to the cooperative agreement.

        Costs associated with attendance and travel to professional development conferences of individuals in positions that are not funded by the cooperative agreement may not be allocated to the cooperative agreement.

      4. Equipment shall include the costs of consultant technical equipment having a useful life of more than one year and a unit acquisition cost of $5,000 or more, except as defined in Special Provisions VI.B. All equipment so defined shall be listed in the Approved Consultation Equipment Procurement Listing.

      5. Supplies shall include the costs of all tangible consultant technical property and materials other than equipment as defined above. Please itemize and describe all supply costs.

      6. Contracts shall include the costs of contracts with all sources, whether non-state government or state government sources, for the provision of services associated with consultant field activities (e.g., occupational health consultation, laboratory sample analysis in states having a Plan approved under Section 18 of the Act, and consultant health monitoring and medical examinations). The detail for laboratory sample analysis costs shall include the number of samples projected for the fiscal year.

      7. Other shall include the costs of equipment calibration and repair services for equipment which cannot be serviced by the OSHA Cincinnati Laboratory (list all equipment), non-travel costs of required or approved training for consultants (limited to tuition fees, registration fees, textbooks, course materials, etc.) and costs of all other miscellaneous consultative items which are not allocated above. Miscellaneous costs include but are not limited to: the proportion of rent, utilities, communications, data processing, postage, freight, etc. associated with the delivery of consultative services by consultation staff; subscriptions to safety and health journals; and training aids, instructional programs and promotional materials which are used by consultants to perform consultation activities.

      8. Total Direct Charges shall consist of the total of the above costs (Items 1. - 7.) for Consultation.

    2. Administration. Administrative costs consist of all direct costs associated with the management and support of the consultation program and all indirect costs. These costs include but are not limited to: the salaries and fringe benefits of personnel engaged in executive, fiscal, data collection, personnel, legal, audit, procurement, data processing, communications, maintenance and similar functions; and related materials, supplies, equipment and staff training. They also include the administration portion of total ADP costs. (ADP costs should be distributed between consultation and administration in the proportion to which ADP services support each function.) Additional administrative costs extend to the salaries and fringe benefits of direct program management positions such as project directors, program monitors and program review officers; and costs of direct clerical support to these positions.

      1. Personnel shall include the salaries of positions identified in Part B: Administration as management (MGT) and direct clerical support (SEC) to these positions. For management personnel who also serve as consultants and/or consultant supervisors, salary costs must be distributed between Administration and Consultation in proportion to the percentage of time spent in performing (1) program management, consultant duties, and/or (3) supervision of consultants.

      2. Fringe Benefits shall include the costs of benefits for personnel identified in Part B: Administration as management (MGT) and direct clerical support (SEC) to these positions. Costs include payments for retirement, social security, workers' compensation, life insurance, medical insurance, etc. Include the cost formula for each fringe benefit. For management personnel who also serve as consultants and/or first-level consultant supervisors, fringe benefit costs shall be distributed between Administration and Consultation in proportion to the percentage of time spent in performing (1) program management, (2) consultant duties, and/or (3) supervision of consultants.

      3. Travel shall include the costs of authorized travel for personnel identified in Part B: Administration as management (MGT) personnel and for all personnel conducting accompanied visits. Costs shall include travel required to attend safety and health conferences (subject to the restrictions in V.A.3., above), regional and national consultation meetings and professional development/training courses. Appropriate supporting details for out-of-state travel (per diem, airfare, registration fees, miscellaneous, etc.) shall be reported in the Annual Training Plan.
