Short Statement:
Throughout, italicized instructional text is in black font to improve readability and accessibility. Previously approved forms may have included italicized instructional text in green font which has now been changed to black font. Documents refer to all funding entities that the NIH OLAW provides animal care and use program oversight for. In addition to providing oversight for Public Health Service funded animal work, the NIH OLAW has memoranda of understandings with the National Science Foundation (NSF) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) for live, vertebrate animal activities. Some documents only referenced NSF and not also NASA. The MOU outlining oversight responsibility between the NIH OLAW and NASA was announced in NIH Guide Notice NOT-OD-20-095 Notice of Memorandum of Understanding Between NIH and NASA Concerning Laboratory Animal Welfare which was released on April 16, 2020. As a result of this change, there is no additional information requested and no increase of burden on the respondent.
