        <RULE_TITLE>NASA Grant and Cooperative Agreement Handbook--Investigative Requirements</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[NASA sometimes, albeit infrequently, requires information for investigations of individuals working on grants and cooperative agreements in order to determine whether to permit, deny, or restrict access to a NASA Center, facility, or computer system, or to NASA technical information.  The provision at section 1260.35, Investigative Requirements, is inserted in all grants and cooperative agreements to ensure recipients provide the information requested by NASA for any required investigation.  This proposed change is needed because recipients of grants and cooperative agreements, especially educational institutions, often do not maintain or have access to the types of information required by the provision at section 1260.35 about their staff, faculty, and students because of policy and legal restrictions.  Instead of requiring the recipients to obtain and submit personal information, this proposed rule makes it clear that the individuals needing access may provide the requisite information directly to NASA.]]></ABSTRACT>
