Requirements and procedures applicable to appeals before the Departmental Grant Appeals Board--Department of Health and Human Services. Notice of proposed rulemaking.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) proposes to delete the material currently set forth in 45 CFR Part 16, and substitute new requirements and procedures applicable to disputes arising under certain HHS grants and other programs. HHS also proposes to add certain related provisions to 45 CFA Part 74, which contains general requirements applicable to all HHS grants and cooperative agreements. These proposed provisions are intended to improve the Department's capability to provide a fair, quick and flexible process for appeal from final written decisions.
